An interesting take on Demonetization (content taken from social media) similar to ebbing of violence in Kashmirr
Did you notice "absence" of something after Jayalalitha death? Whats so clearly missing is something that we usually expect from the "overemotional" Tamil crowd: violent outburst after a leader''s demise. This time no statewide self immolation, burning buses, damaging public property, arson, curfew etc...barring one or two stray instances probably.
So why violence is absent this time which was so pervasive even in recent Cauvery protests? What changed overnight?

Some say police did a good job, some say there was enough time for emotions to subside etc. etc But the real reason is the magic of demonetization. No filthy cash available to fund rioting!!
Almost every riot and unrest in the country used to be manufactured and funded by black money either to satisfy someone''s ego or serve a vested interest. Otherwise for everyone barring some crackpots, earning a living, taking care of their family and themselves come way up in priority list compared to going up in flames for a corrupt politician.
Just like some suicide bombers get recruited in exchange for a compensation to their poor family, self immolation recruitment would mostly happen in exchange for some cash to family. To prove leader''s popularity. In the most inhuman way.

One move on 8 Nov at 8pm and so many lives get saved to take a better shot at life. Thousands of crores of public property spared from destruction. Demonetization is absolutely an amazing move. Compelling results are already here to see and stay. If Note ban had happened 2 months earlier, even organized arson in Bangalore due to Cauvery dispute may not have happened. We all know that 99% of politicians are corrupt and anti-people regardless of language, religion, caste etc. Modi has dared to take on corrupt forces risking his and his party's future. There will be many stories floating around until he is declared winner or loser. Let us wait for Modi's 30-Dec speech expected to throw more surprises and ensuing UP elections which may be turning point in Indian Politics.

Subject: Re: [IAC#RG] 're stated purpose of notes ban and G. Iyer's comment
Did I get it right? Was there a suggestion that anyone seeing such pavement havala transactions and not reporting them is him/herself abetting corruption? Do you know how high the stakes are here and how much money is being laundered in this way? Don't you know how whistle blowers on minor scams like MNREGA and Vyapam are harassed and even killed in India?
All gov't. Banks are in the same game. There is no cash crunch for selected patrons with ruling party connections.
According to my limited understanding of the system, having lent out ... crores in NPAs, a euphemism for financial crime, they needed recapitalization, and they are doing this with our money, in order to fund the same crony capitalists that took the first loans, in a "re-adjustment" deal, with kickbacks to the same parties that urged the banks to provide the earlier bad loans, now being written off!
The really secret, undemocratic purpose of the exercise will enfold over the next year - signs have emerged already, with the digital/cashless India announcements, the fact that district administrations in BJP states are not attending their normal duties but attending trainings on digitization (except, of course, for land records, the other cash cow), the new incentives to use plastic or mobile payments, the statements of Bill.Gates, Paytm bosses, Reliance Jio, etc applauding Modi, and innumerable other news items.
There were party workers in every bus I travelled in in November in Delhi who would surround a person complaining about the futile bank lines they were losing their daily wages for, to reeducate these complainers in true fascist or Maoist fashion. Is this not a well-thought out strategy to deceive citizens and quell public dissent?
In any other country everyone would have been out on the streets protesting, as in the Occupy Wall Street movement. As I said, we are a nation of sheep, and those who live by daily labour cannot spend time in protests.
