Sukhbir Singh Badal: One Congress guy told me they wanted Navjot, but instead we got his wife.
Sukhbir Singh Badal: One Congress guy told me they wanted Navjot, but instead we got his wife.
Sukhbir Singh Badal: Akali is people's party, we understand the decisions we take. Congress is a high command party. So is AAP. People from their party have to go to Arvind Kejriwal
Amarinder Singh: We are a national party, we have process. I had a view, I believed a younger generation must come up.
Sukhbir Singh Badal: Everyday Pakistan throws drugs across the border into Punjab. But we can't do anything because the BSF is not in our control. I did a surprise drug test on all 4 lakh police applicants. Only 1.62 per cent tested positive that is half the national average. Punjab has been defamed unfairly. Media has defamed Punjab. Out of 12,000 army recruits tested only 10 tested positive.

Today Punjab's economy is on its knees, the state is on its knees. We had five years, we worked very well. The Akalis won because they were able to sell themselves well, some faults were ours. We had to produce a workable manifesto, they haven't been able to complete 20 per cent of what they promised: Amarinder Singh
Arvind Kejriwal is a lost case in Punjab, that is why you don't have him here: Sukhbir Singh Badal
Change is not easy to adopt even for a common civilian: Manohar Parrikar

The ministry has not understood in terms of its spread. Common man thinks defence ministry is only the border, the cantonment and procurement.
Procurement is in news because of kickbacks. Border is in focus because of cross-border attacks. And cantonment comes in focus because of closed roads. Normal people think these are all that there is to the defence minister: Manohar Parrikar

In a democracy, the capital should have one man who can sometimes stop certain things. Sometimes people get swayed. Perhaps the BJP gained from that. In UP we can say it hasn't worked that much for the people: Akhilesh Yadav

In a democracy, one who torments people faces their anger eventually: Akhilesh Yadav
You want people to ditch wallets, take to phone banking. How is it possible? People don't know so much. When I gave laptops to people, they asked how will it be charged. I said through tractors, Akhilesh Yadav to Barkha Dutt.

You Cannot Stop Technology, Digitisation Of Economy Will Happen: Arun Jaitley To Vikram Chandra
If you look at the temperament of this country, there are sections which are reluctant to accept change. I remember we spent a lot of time debating whether India needs colour television.
In 1996, our party bought 7 mobile phones. And the media did not report the resolutions but only made fun of us for buying those.
15 years ago if they said every poor, Dalit will have a mobile phone, most of us would have been in disbelief. But it has happened.

Once the remonetisation process is completed, it will hugely impact Indian businesses and way of life. If some states are seen as opposing every reform then investors in this country and outside will decide which states to invest, says Arun Jaitley.
Current Move Will Make Political Funding Far More Transparent: Jaitley On PM Modi's Demonetisation Move
In the last 2 years, I have announced (the budget), I have already said I want to bring corporate tax to more globally acceptable levels of around 25 per cent.

Arun Jaitley Speaks On People Paying Tax
People filing returns and paying tax at source are not more than 5.5 crores in a country of 125 crores. All this data goes into a computer system and that raises the red alerts. And some 300,000 or 1 per cent are picked up for scrutiny. So it's a very poor alibi (for not paying taxes).

As far as the existing system is concerned, yes people are trying to beat the system. Inflow could come from money from within the banking systems. Then there are money which are not deposited. Then the third limit is the money which are liable for taxation: Arun Jaitley
We will remain the fastest growing economy this year: Arun Jaitley
In terms of the way of life, We had a pakka khata, and kachcha khata. Do developed economies behave like this?Look at how politics is funded. It is very hush hush.
Because it is such a cosy situation, you don't have to take steps
But if we confront it, it will be for the better. Rates will come down, there will be more volume (of money) in the formal economy.

You already have 23 crore e-wallets. Both in politics and media we find it difficult but the country is changing must faster than we can expect. This exercise goes beyond smartphones today, to feature phones as well.And the numbers don't just reflect the affluent Indian, they reflect the inspirational India and then will percolate even lower: Arun Jaitley
After cash ban, there wont be the same level of paper currency: Arun Jaitley
You will take the country further towards digital currency. That is already happening. Volume of formal trade, volume of business will grow but paper currency will shrink.
The balance will be replaced by debit cards, e-wallets.

When covering such a large population, there will be queues. But people have cooperated tremendously. You don't find a social unrest in the country: Arun Jaitley
The system has to be recalibrate, demonetisation process is not instantaneous: Arun Jaitley on demonetisation
You have several lakhs points of exchange which are there. Therefore, not only must there be readiness in terms of printing, but it must reach the points and ready for redistribution. So you can understand the enormity. And there must be secrecy and information served on a need to know basis.

Besides printing, immediately you have to reach 1.33 lakh banks, 1.5 post offices, says Arun Jaitley
It doesn't get replaced in months, it takes much more than. So the readiness needs to begin much earlier. Both Government of India and RBI presses need to be ready: Arun Jaitley on cash ban
The prior preparation is if you need to replace 86 per cent of the country's cash currency.Then you need a substantial readiness. It is a time consuming, complicated exercise: Arun Jaitley on notes ban
