“People in villages also want to see TV…they also like to see ‘saas-bahu’ serial but as there is no electricity how can they see it,” Modi said, referring to the popular TV show.
The government has said money recovered from those hoarding it post demonetisation exercise would be used for people’s welfare like infrastructure development.
Replying to the opposition’s charge that farmers have been hit hard by demonetisation and sowing has been affected, he said, “I especially want to thank farmers who despite all problems have not allowed sowing to be affected…it has rather gone up from last time.”
“They (opposition parties) are misleading people, creating an atmosphere of pessimism,” he said.
Taking a dig at those who have been attacking him over the move, he said, “Some people have lost glow on their faces…earlier they used to chant money-money, now they are chanting Modi-Modi.”
