URGENT QUERIES concerning SBN withdrawal

On 8th Nov 2016 the Hon'ble Prime Minister announced the withdrawal of legal tender status to certain high value notes on the recommendations of the Central Board of Reserve Bank of India.

There is some confusion in the public mind about the role and status of one Dr. Nachiket Mor in this process, causing the INDIA AGAINST CORRUPTION to seek urgent clarity from your offices and considering that as far back as 6 April 2015 the INDIA AGAINST CORRUPTION had formally complained to the RBI about prevalance of huge quantities MG series counterfeit notes and demanded their immediate demonetisation / replacement.

It appears from the website of the RBI that Dr. Nachiket Mor is presently a Central Govt. nominee u/s 8(1)(b) of RBI Act to the RBI's Central Board.

It appears from the RBI website that Dr. Nachiket Mor attended the 560th meeting of the RBI Central Board on 20 Oct. 2016 at Kanpur where "The Board reviewed the current economic situation, global and domestic challenges and other specific areas of operations of the Reserve Bank of India."

Shortly thereafter this meeting various Hindi newspapers of Kanpur and Uttar Pradesh published that Rs. 500 and Rs.1,000 SBN MG series notes were being demonetised.

Concerning Dr. Nachiket Mor,

On or about 28 September 2015 Hon'ble Prime Minister met Shri Bill Gates in USA.

In December 2015 the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation announced "Nachiket (Mor) recently joined the foundation as Senior Advisor. He is an Indian banker. He is a former member of the Central Board of the Reserve Bank of India. He is known for his inventions of financial devices to deliver banking service to villages and contribution in trying to solve India's financial inclusion problem."

Thereafter it was clarified in the media that Dr. Mor would be taking over as Director (India Office) Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation wef March 2016 which reports again describe that Nachiket Mor was a former member of RBI's board.

The RBI website, however, makes no mention of Dr. Nachiket Mor's connection with Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation
Accordingly the INDIA AGAINST CORRUPTION is deeply interested to know the true facts between Dr. Nachiketa Mor's participation in the various Central Board meetings of Reserve Bank of India which recommended demonetisation when all the while he was employed by Bill Gates and Melinda Gates and had aparently suppresed his affiliations from the Central Government / Reserve Bank and which ultimately led to the "demonetization" scheme being published in advance by the Kanpur based journalist.

We would also urge you to kindly immediately place the complete records of the 560th RBI Central Board meeting at Kanpur as well as the special meeting of the Board on 8th Nov 2016 in the public domain so that the citizens of India are properly informed about the deliberations of the RBI's Central Board and its recommendations for withdrawal of the SBN (specified bank notes).

Kindly treat this matter as very urgent.

sincerely
