On the contrary, it was obvious to every economist that demonetisation was the height of folly even as it was announced, which is why it was opposed by all, except a handful of &ldquo;climbers&rdquo; keen to please the government.</p> <p style="text-align:justify">The government had mentioned three objectives of the move: to eliminate black money, to get rid of counterfeit notes and to attack terror funding. Of these, the last two were add-ons that everybody knew did not carry much credibility. A study by the Indian Statistical Institute had estimated counterfeit currency to be a minuscule proportion of total currency. Hence, the sudden demonetisation of 85% of the country&rsquo;s currency for the sake of getting rid of a minuscule amount of counterfeit currency could not be taken seriously as an argument.</p> <p style="text-align:justify">Likewise, terror funding occurs through diverse routes and nobody seriously thought that demonetisation would stop terror funding or even hurt it temporarily.

Demonetisation has Been an Utter Failure on all Fronts -Prabhat Patnaik |
-Newsclick.in None of its stated objectives have been met and the entire exercise has turned out to be a mere act of converting old notes into new ones, at great inconvenience to the people. In the entire history of post-Independence India, no single economic measure has been as devastating for the people and as utterly futile in achieving its stated objectives, as the demonetisation of currency notes of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 denomination, decreed by the Narendra Modi government on November 8, 2016. The fact that it did not achieve its stated objectives was not unforeseen. On the contrary, it was obvious to every economist that demonetisation was the height of folly even as it was announced, which is why it was opposed by all, except a handful of “climbers” keen to please the government. The government had mentioned three objectives of the move: to eliminate black money, to get rid of counterfeit notes and to attack terror funding. Of these, the last two were add-ons that everybody knew did not carry much credibility. A study by the Indian Statistical Institute had estimated counterfeit currency to be a minuscule proportion of total currency. Hence, the sudden demonetisation of 85% of the country’s currency for the sake of getting rid of a minuscule amount of counterfeit currency could not be taken seriously as an argument. Likewise, terror funding occurs through diverse routes and nobody seriously thought that demonetisation would stop terror funding or even hurt it temporarily. The real objective was to eliminate black money; and believing that demonetisation would do so, betrays the Modi government’s total lack of understanding of the black economy, and hence of the economy in general.
