Black money
Black money is major problem in developing countries and black
money is the root cause of terrorism. So it is a problem that has to
be handled by every country in the world.
Black money is the accumulation of currency over a long period of
time. Because currency has not changed for so long, it got
accumulated with many people. Though currency gets changed
once in a while, the old currency is also valid. It gives enough time
for black money to get converted to new currency. The illegally
earned money is getting used for illegal purpose.
Changing currency is the simplest solution to clean black money.
If a country decides to change the currency, it should not give
much time for people to convert it to new currency. Give, may be,
just one month time. Dont announce the plan of currency
change. Plan properly, estimate the currency requirement, print
all required currency, decide the date and announce. Request
people to deposit all the currency in banks and withdraw only
required amount as new currency. When they go to bank for
depositing currency, everybody needs to give their PAN number
or social security number or some way to identify themselves.
People cannot just exchange the currency. They cannot give old
currency and take new currency. They need to deposit the money
in bank account. After that they can withdraw depending on their
requirement. There is upper limit for withdrawal per day. If
anybody is depositing huge amount, keep track of that person.
With this process, all the currency will get converted. Because
time given is less, people that are having black money need to
decide quickly whether to convert to the new currency or lose the
money. With this way, currency part of black money will be
cleared completely.
Foreigners who came on trip can get their money converted at
any bank. Foreign exchanges will be having different procedure
for currency conversion. People living in foreign countries have to
deposit the currency in foreign banks.
For poor people who are not reading news or unaware of this
change, we can relax time for a longer period. They will be having
very less currency with them. For them, give monthly one day for
currency conversion. Set maximum conversion limit to 10,000
rupees or less. This process can go for about one year. With this
poor people are not getting affected. They can change the
currency within one year. Nobody is living without using money
for one year. If they go to any shop, the shop keeper will not allow
the old currency. Then this person will understand the change and
how to convert. If they are earning, they will see new currency
and understand why they got new currency. Even if poor people
are away from media, they will get the information very soon. But
the limit of currency that can be converted after one month is
very less. Banks will not allow anybody who tries to deposit more
cash with old currency after one month. The time limit has to be
very strict.
With this process, we can find people that are having black
money. If they dont show up the money, they are under loss
because they cannot use that money later. They will be losing the
money permanently. Government will have the full details of
which country is having what amount of currency. This information
is useful for economy planning and to find country supported
terrorism.
If a person withdraws huge currency, government can track the
person and his/her activities along with the currency distribution.
As all the banks are connected worldwide, if any huge transaction
happens, that information should reach government immediately.
Government can keep a system (computer) just to track this
information and set limits on transactions within country and
across countries. Whenever transaction crosses the limit, a log is
generated in government system. That is up to CBI to decide on
how to utilise that information.
If all governments join hands to tackle terrorism, tracking of
money movements will be very easy with current technology.
Governments can even predict where the terrorist accumulation is
happening and even their activities with money movements. If a
person is suspected of having links with terrorists, that persons

Global Financial Integrity puts the cumulative illicit money moving out of
the country at Rs 28 lakh crore in 10 years
As India continues its pursuit of suspected black money stashed abroad, an international
think-tank has ranked the country third globally with an estimated USD 94.76 billion
(nearly Rs 6 lakh crore) illicit wealth outflows in 2012.
As a result, the cumulative illicit money moving out of the country over a ten-year period
from 2003 to 2012 has risen to USD 439.59 billion (Rs 28 lakh crore), as per the latest
estimates released by the Global Financial Integrity (GFI).
Russia is on the top with USD 122.86 billion, followed by China at the second position (USD
249.57 billion) in terms of the quantum of black money moving out of a country for 2012
the latest year for which these estimates have been made.
The Washington-based research and advocacy group further said that the illicit fund
outflows from India accounts for nearly 10 per cent of a record USD 991.2 billion worth
illegal capital that moved out of all developing and emerging nations in 2012 to facilitate
crime, corruption, and tax evasion.
As per GFIs 2014 Annual Global Update on Illicit Financial Flows report, that the
cumulative illicit outflows from developing economies for ten years between 2003 and 2012
stands at USD 6.6 trillion.
This includes USD 439.59 billion worth illicit money that has moved out of India in these
ten years, putting the country at fourth position in overall ranking for a decade, after China
(USD 1.25 trillion), Russia (973.86 billion) and Mexico (USD514.26 billion).
In these ten years, an average of USD 43.96 billion of black money is being sent out of India
every year, GFI said.
The estimate of these huge illegal money flow follows a Supreme Courtconstituted Special
Investigation Team (SIT) tracing Rs 4,479 crore in the accounts of Indians figuring in a list
of account holders of HSBCs Geneva branch.
Besides, the SIT has also disclosed tracing unaccounted wealth worth Rs 14,958 crore within
India, which are now being investigated by the Enforcement Directorate and the Income
Tax Department.
The issue of black money has been matter of a serious political debate in India, including
during the last general elections. While the new government has said it is committed to
tackle this menace, there are no official figures for the overall size of illicit wealth stashed by
Indians within the country or abroad.
As per GFI estimates, the amount of illicit funds that moved out of India in 2012 was much
lower than the same for neighbouring China, as also Russia.
introduction
In India, black money refers to funds earned on the black market, on which income
and other taxes have not been paid. The total amount of black money deposited in foreign
banks by Indians is unknown. Some reports claim a total of US$1.06 trillion is held illegally
in Switzerland.[1] Other reports, including those reported by the Swiss Bankers
Association and the Government of Switzerland, claim these reports are false and
fabricated, and the total amount held in all Swiss bank accounts by citizens of India is
about US$2 billion.[2][3]
In February 2012, the director of India's Central Bureau of Investigation said that Indians
have US$500 billion of illegal funds in foreign tax havens, more than any other country.[4][5] In
March 2012, the government of India clarified in its parliament that the CBI director's
statement on $500 billion of illegal money was an estimate based on a statement made to
India's Supreme Court in July 2011.[6]
In a televised address on 8 November 2016 by Indian Prime Minister Narendra
Modi announced that banknotes of 500 and 1000 would cease to be legal tender from
midnight. Automatic teller machines at some places were closed on 9 and 10 November.
Government organisations have brought out new notes. The Govt of India had accepted the
proposal of RBI in bringing out 2000 banknotes and a new version of the 500. The old
notes are being removed from circulation.[7][8]

Availability of Knowledge
Advantages
The internet which was once just a little puddle, now, have become an ocean; an ocean of
knowledge. It is like a magical crystal ball which has an answer for every question of yours and
the best thing about it is; it is completely free. I know how much I have learnt from the internet.
How internet is better than books when it comes to knowledge? The answer to this would be the
infinity of the internet. Plus, apart from this, learning from internet is much more fun. You have
all kinds of videos about basically every topic that you can imagine of. Disadvantages
If availability of knowledge helps people to do good things, it is also, a help for evil. There are
thousands of websites which tells you ways to make a bomb or how to commit suicide. People
even learn how to hack websites from the internet.
Communication
Advantages
Another amazing thing about the internet is the communication that it makes possible. Most of
the business firms communicate with each other with the help of e-mails. It is not only a faster
way but also the safer way too. With internet you can video chat with a person who might be in
some other continent as of yours. Disadvantages
We are getting so use to of virtual communication that we are lacking a physical contact with our
acquaintances. It is separating us from the real world around us, which I think smothers the
development of personality of an individual.
Smaller World
Advantage
Due to internet our world is becoming smaller and smaller. Computers which are connected to
internet are connected to each other. This facilitates the transfer of a file or even a folder from
one computer to another. Disadvantage
Due to this connection your personal data can be stolen from your computer. Various kinds of
virus, malware, and spyware enter your computer via internet.
