> So if someone missed this 17 days

this sort of shit is what makes a gov't a low trust gov't.

It exacerbates the informal economy - people would not want to pay taxes to fund such a govt, because they don't see that the gov't is running with their interest in mind (despite india being a so called democracy).

It was a poorly thought-out policy.



> people would not want to pay taxes to fund such a govt

that reminds me about another gem:

> The use of demonetised banknotes was allowed for the payment of municipal and local civic body taxes, leading to a jump in their revenue collections.


> It was a poorly thought-out policy

It was robbing people. Poorly thought out policy is an expression for people with good intentions, I just don't believe in that when it comes to the Indian government.
