I feel
filing a writ petition in the High Court may be,
perhaps, the best answer. Your case appears very genuine.
You may implead Governor RBI and the Union of India (through
the Secretary, Ministry of Finance) as the parties. The writ
application should be from your wife who should support the
averments on affidavit, giving details as to how she came to
be in possession of the money. It is a known fact that wives
do save money from the household expenses given to them by
their husbands, gifts from parents, brothers etc. And they
do keep such money in such places as cannot be detected by
anyone, including the husband, or be stolen. And at times
wives do forget where they kept the money.
But
unfortunately litigation is expensive. It may be a case of
the monkey gaining from the fight between two cats - I mean
lawyer may gain by way of fee.
The
strongest ground could be "The promise that the RBI
Governor has made to pay on demand". Such promise
cannot be revoked at the instance of the third Party
(Govt).
Another
sound ground being that Mr Modi had earlier promised that
after 31 Dec 2016 one could deposit the old currency with
the RBI till 31 March 2017.
High Court
has the power and in an appropriate case may issue
writ.
I wish you
success.

Re: [IAC#RG] Scams in Anna Hazare's NGO leads to compulsory audit of 30 Lakh NGOs
However, we have sent emails to Mr. Anna Hazare's office and also spoken to many people in his organisation sharing our deep concern that Mr. Hazare is cheapening the anti-corruption movement by his poor choice of associates and sponsors.
Has material,considered adverse to Mr Hazare been shared with the entire media?Let them come up with their own investigative journalism or sting ops.Post: "indiaresists@lists.riseup.net---------- Forwarded message ----------

To: indiaresists <indiaresists@lists.riseup.net> Although Anna Hazare regularly gets all kinds of awards in his personal capacity from unregulated entities for services rendered it is not clear where he accounts for these considering the multiplicity of trusts he is involved in but whose accounts are not up-to-date or filed. His main trust the Bhrastachar Virodhi Jan Andolan Nyas (BVJA) was in serious trouble and most of its trustees have disassociated from him and the Jt. Charity Commissioner Pune had even stopped the trust and was on point of appointing an administrator and had frozen its name. After this happened a desperate and penniless Anna Hazare (who had previously repeatedly stated on national television that he was in no way connected to India Against Corruption) even tried to start using IAC's name after his Biopic flopped badly and he was recently reduced to acting for meat / beef exporters and hawala agents for peanuts.The SC PIL by SC Advocate M.L.Sharma exposing the scandals in Anna Hazare's NGO Hind Swaraj Trust which was probed by Justice P.B.Sawant Commission of Inquiry has finally resulted in the SC Bench directing (on 10.Jan.2017) the concerned Govts to ensure audits of Anna 's trusts along with all 30 Lakh NGOs in the country.India Against Corruption has been regulary cautioning about deceivers like Anna Hazare who act coy and simple in public but whose operstions seem to be functioning on oceans of unaccounted black money in private.How low can such people stoop is the question ? Is it the time near that Anna Haazre will again start recommending politicians like Chauthala to the voters against under the table payoffs made to his close associates in Ralegan Siddhi?Sarbajitfor INDIA AGAINST CORRUPTION jan andolan"

Re: [IAC#RG] DELHI GOVERNANCE GO FOR A TOSS
're Shri Venkataraman's comment on AAP's neglect of SWM in Delhi, the Municipality is completely controlled by the BJP, the salary arrears/upgrades problem has been festering for months leading to two major strikes, and it is probably the most corrupt municipality in the country given the population it is meant to serve, the finances it collects from property taxes and its legendary muster rolls of ghost workers and lists of corrupt contractors (and JEs, AEs ) over three decades.
However, when I was enquiring about house mutation issues two years ago, other petitioners overheard me complaining and said it wasn't going to require any bribes as AAP (at least then) had put the screws on its functioning such that no officers were demanding bribes of ordinary citizens. My experience corroborates that - absolutely no bribes were even hinted at in my dealings with the property mutation matter.Solid waste management problems exist in all Indian cities due to venal municipal councillors and officers.

This would cause spread of contagious disease and pollution which will affect the health of the poor people living in unsafe conditions.It appears that AAP government in Delhi is more interested in disruptive politics and winning election in Goa and Punjab by hoodwinking the voters with their false claim of fighting against corruption .. Obviously, Delhi governance is of least priority to the AAP leaders.A careful review of the performance of AAP rule in Delhi would highlight the fact that very little worthwhile work has been done. In such circumstance, the poll prediction that AAP will do well in Punjab is causing concern. Hope the voters in Punjab will be more alert than the voters in Delhi.N.S..Venkataraman

Re: [IAC#RG] Suggestions Invited: Accidental Discovery of demonetised currency at home post Dec 30 Deadline
Of course as National Convenor IAC I have been regularly complaining to RBI and Govt about their failures to comply with section 39. The Bombay High Court Judgement in D'Souza's case [link] is unchallenged and binding that even demonetised notes are to be exchanged for value. You can remind RBI that I was protesting on your behalf also since all our emails are with you. I can share the videos of the massive queues we recorded outside RBI's offices till 30th Dec 2016 which prevented most note holders from entering.I clearly recall that I, you, and all similarly placed members of IAC holding old nates, had been regularly visiting the designated RBI offices to EXCHANGE these old notes (u/s 39 RBI Act 1934) but there was a tremendous shortage of coin and low denomination notes or other legal tender and the RBI could not comply with its statutory obligations. (NB: In the absence of coin from the Govt the RBI cannot issue new notes, since new notes can only be issued against replacement or acknowledgment of future Govt debt).Dear Col. SrikantRead this carefully.By an ordinance the Govt has unilaterally repudiated its sovereign debt contained in the notes you hold thereby releiving the RBI from its obligations to exchange old notes for coin u/s 39 RBI Act.
Ask RBI ("governor@rbi.org.in") pointedly how they will comply with their section 39 obligations to EXCHANGE old notes at their offices for legal tender considering that they did not hold sufficient legal tender notes on those dates in their issue dept to satisfy you and were ratioining notes at a miserly Rs. 2,000 per person.Remember Govt can only extenguish the legal tender characteristic of notes, it cannot extinguish RBI's obligations to EXCHANGE notes on demand at RBI's office without an amendment to the RBI Act. The ordinance issued by the President has set aside the law of Parliament since Parliament is not in session (view ordinance here).
http://www.livelaw.in/president-approves-specified- bank-notes-cessation- liabilities-ordinance-2016/
Of course once Parliament resumes the ordinance lapses in the normal course.SarbajitOn Wed, Jan 11, 2017 at 8:13 AM, Colonel Srikant <colonelsrikant@gmail.com> wrote:While packing to move house, in Bangalore, my wife and I discovered, yesterday, one lakh rupees in demonetised notes in our steel cupboard, which we had kept aside for medical and other emergencies (we are both well above 60 years and retired from government service- army and banking), and overlooked to deposit by Dec 30.Can anyone, under the unexpected circumstances, suggest the best possible solution to help us out and whom to contact for same?
