But You have Promises to Keep

But  You  have   Promises  to   Keep

In a few days , NDA government will complete 2 years in power

While  fighting elections in 2014 , BJP had released a Poll Manifesto , in which , it had made promises for many REFORMS , if voted to power

Now , Shri Modiji has asked all of his Ministers to go to their respective constituencies and make the citizens aware of the NDA achievements during past 2 years

They would have been better prepared , had they known in advance , actual  " Perception " of the people , through a Mobile App ( to be called : RUN  = Rate  Us  Now ), based SURVEY of 800 million voters , asking :

 " How much ( % age ) of the promises that we made in our POLL MANIFESTO , do you think we have delivered by now ? "

Without waiting for that Mobile App , following are my estimates  :

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*  Elimination of  Black Money...................................................   10 %

   

*  Special Courts to stop Hoarding / Black-Marketing.. ...............     10 %

*  Set-up a Price-Stabilization Fund.............................................. 10 %

*  Develop Labour-intensive Manufacturing ..................................  20 %

*  Empowering Youth for Self-Employment..................................   50 %

*  Transforming Employment Exchanges to Career Centers........... . 10 %

*  Eliminating Corruption thru E-Governance...............................   50 %

*  Rationalization / Simplification of Tax-Regime...........................  30 %

*  Insulate Intelligence Agencies from political intervention ............  20 %

   

*  Strengthening Physical Infrastructure ....................................... 30 %

*  Expediting work on Freight and Industrial Corridors..................... 25 %

*  Setting up Gas-Grids ..............................................................  5 %

*  Optical Fiber Network up to the village level....... ....................... 40 %

   

*  Quadrilateral project for Bullet Trains.....................................    10  %  

*  Establishment of National  " E - Library " ...................................  5 % 

*  Implementation of National Education Policy .. ........................... 10 %

*  Evolving further the PPP model to PPPP model ...........................  65 %

*  Building 100 Mega-Cities.........................................................   10 %

Dear Shri Modiji :

It is still not late

Using Google Form or SurveyMonkey , it will take just a FEW HOURS to launch such a SURVEY and get some genuine / authentic FEEDBACK , without depending upon ( dubious ) " Sample Surveys " of newspapers and TV channels

Yours will be the FIRST government to use BIG DATA analytics for such a referendum ( call it IND-EXIST = India Exists ! )

Subject: CURRENCY MAPS OF INDIA ?

Currency    Maps    of    India  ?

When in 1949 , George Orwell wrote his all-time classic " Nineteen  Eighty  Four " , he had not envisaged Tablets / Smart phones

So , he imagined that TV screens would keep a watch over mankind , 24 hours , like CCTV cameras

Nor did Tim Berners Lee , envisage  IoT ( Internet of Things ) or BIG DATA analytic tools ( MapReduce / Hadoop ), when he invented World Wide Web

And neither did Robert Easton , envisage RFID sensors when he invented GPS in 1967

But today , with wide-spread usage/application of these technologies, it is not difficult to envisage :

 CURRENCY  MAPS   OF  INDIA

No doubt , all of us have seen following types of Maps ( for India / Asia or for the entire World ) , on TV Channels and even on our tablets and smart phones  :

#   Weather Maps , showing :

      *  amount of rain fall ( inches / mm )

      *  location wise temperature intensity ( *C / *F )

      *  topography ( heights of mountains / depths of valleys )

      *  Cloud Formations and direction of Storms and landfall locations

      *  Wind Patterns ( velocity in km per hour )

      *  Ocean Currents in Atlantic / Pacific ( direction / speed )

      *  Ice Cover over Antarctica / Arctic Region ( sq km )

 

 #   Space Maps , showing :

      *  Geological formations on Moon / Mars / Mercury / Asteroids

      *  Night illumination in different parts of world as seen from Skylab

      *  Galactic formations , billions of light years away

And of course , Google Maps of all types ( including those peering into our bedrooms ! )

Given this state of art ( and of science ) , it is not difficult to envisage ,

following types of  CURRENCY  MAPS  of INDIA , showing aggregate value of Rs 500 / 1000 Currency Notes ( ie : currency density of Rs 1 million / 1 billion / 1 trillion / any figure of your liking ! ) in :

*   Any given Street / City / State

*   Premises of any Car Dealer / Jeweler Shop / Real Estate Agency / Mall /

     Race Course / Builder ( any office / housing location of your choice )

 *  Any Airport ( a million Rupees in Rs 500 notes weigh only 2.2 kg ! )

 *  Any Safe Deposit Vault of any bank

With the existing technologies , it is even possible to plot the movement of Rs 500 / 1000 currency notes ( just one note or a thousand notes ) on a GPS map of India , to determine its direction and velocity ( Currency Currents )

In real time , too -  24*7  !

All of the above is possible to achieve within  6 MONTHS  , by :

*  Abolishing existing paper notes of Rs 500 / 1000

*  Replace these with plastic notes , embedded with RFID sensors

   ( can be embedded into existing 3 mm silver-colored  security wire )

*  Allot a unique IP V 6.0 address to each such note linked to its serial no

*  Develop / host a Technology Platform , based on GPS mapping system

   

*  All smart phones to carry GPS locator ( cannot be switched off )

  (  anyone carrying a Rs 500 note in wallet , also carries a Smart phone ! )

Of course , Currency Map App ( to be named, " Currency-Cure " ? ),

available to general public on their smart phones , will not be able to zoom-in / drill down , under 1 sq km area, to protect individual privacy ( this can be done , only by authorized officers of Income Tax Dept / Enforcement Directorate )

If some of you think my suggestion is impractical , consider following :

A division of Master Card ( called , MasterCard Advisors ), aggregates and analyzes ,every day , 65 BILLION transactions from 1.5 BILLION card-holders in 210 countries , in order to divine , business and consumer trends !

And only 2 days back , Shri Raghuram Rajan , RBI Governor said :

"  It is because money has no odour, because it is the great equalizer , that so many people across history have been able to acquire resources and invested them to make the world we live in

Rather than prohibiting the use of money and wealth , let us think about increasing society's tolerance for its use "

Today's Hindustan Times quotes a Income Tax officers as follows :

"  The taxman will soon start matching your IT returns with your possessions

The Government has started collecting data from various sources and when this is done and the data has been sifted through , action will begin

This drive is a salient feature of the tax department's agenda to curb under-reporting of tax and expand the tax payer base in the country "

And two days back , the person who leaked PANAMA  PAPERS ( 11.5 million digitized documents ) , remarked :

"  Digitization will bring in a revolution "

I would like to add :

{ RFID sensors in Currency Notes  +  IP V 6.0 URL +  GPS +  HADOOP  } ,

will end BLACK MONEY and CORRUPTION , in India

( without needing to pass any bill in Rajya Sabha ! )

I do hope , Shri Arun Jaitley-ji will take note !
