Political Update

Black money

The Prime Minister has underlined his commitment to bring back black money deposited in foreign countries and outlined the measures taken to combat the menace that had deprived the country of its resources.

As many as 20 countries were identified for reaching agreements on exchange of information and assistance in tax collection. Negotiations with the Bahamas and Bermuda were over, paving the way for signing of agreements.

The government had sought renegotiation of the tax treaty with Switzerland and talks were held in November to finalise a protocol that would allow for obtaining information in specific cases.

excerpt from The Hindu

I like the way things are going :) Hope there is a whip on stupid acts in the rule of Mayawati, regionalism of sena and many more such 'desh premis'
