November 27, 2016 11:37

More highlights from PM Modi's Mann ki Baat:

* I need your help and I am confident that crores of youngsters in India will do it, pledge to be part of cashless economy from today

* There has been 300% increase in the use of Rupay card since poor people started using it; it is as simple as sending a WhatsApp

* Common man will be trouble free if they are made aware of the digital financial transaction options; youths can do this quickly

* I know that you support this (demonetisation) decision; also know that you are contributing a lot to make this a success.

* I know cashless economy is difficult; Why not move towards a less-cash society? Need your physical support in this.

* Please don't use names of poor to deposit your black money

* I want to thank our farmers especially; was looking at the sowing details, sowing has increased this year.

* I invite small traders to adopt cashless economy to bring about a huge transformation in the country.

* A hotel in Maharashtra's Akola has put hoardings for people to avail food even if they don't have money post demonetisation

* I am confident that India will succeed in the demonetisation move.

* I request my labourer brothers and sisters to become partners in this scheme

* I used to talk about 'Chai pe charcha' during elections; never knew this will reach marriage halls; couple in Surat got married offering tea.
