There is no one to stop railways. They charge what they like for every ticket. Even the banks charge for each ticket. Minimum Rs 10 from both sides. I don't know for what ?
Please don't teach us all this. We are no better than remote African countries. Rather we are cheats par excellence. Further, being people of mixed blood, we change colours at our convenience and advantage.
It is very sweet in hearing and telling people to go cashless, but in fact this method of payements is falling dear on pockets, we have to pay extra over and above the cost of things. Merchants are charging 1.5% to 2.5% from purchasers for each transaction. It is beginintg and people are not getting pinch due to their own diverted minds towards cash crunch but soon it will pinch ,ore and more then the methoed will fail. Govt. should save roghts of the consuumer and the people of India must be saved from being cheated and looted by these merchants.
The first and foremost requirement for these type of transaction is secure transaction environment. It is highly doubtful if that sort of environment is available in India right now. Everyday we are hearing about card frauds and e frauds. without a fool proof security system in place, pushing people into cashless transactions is unfair. Also Internet penetration is abysmally low in our country and majority of the population owns only button phones with which they feel comfortable. This should be a slow and steady process.
We are living in a fools paradise. How many people can avail of this facility of cashless transactions in India. It should be 1-2 % These articles are good for those who own smart phones , know little bit of these operations . Most people even do not remember their bank account numbers . How will we manage this country. This Govt is befooling public with false slogans . They do not know ground realities. People are actually in trouble. People are loosing jobs. Business is at standstill. Generations to come will remember this Govt as that which destroyed the Indian economy. The economy was brought to rails by constant efforts of Narshinga Rao and Manmohan sigh in 15 years

None of these fellows talk about the complete loss of privacy. Already corporations like Facebook have tons of data about you. I suppose now the government wants to snoop on each and every transaction that you made. And of course, if some bureaucrat does not like you, he just issues an order to block your digital id, and you are finished! All those who are shouting cashless at the top of their voices should think a little bit about handing over their life's savings to some faceless entity that can eliminate them at the click of a button.
Most of the officers who had corrupt money got their notes converted and have hoarded the 100 and fifty rupees notes after getting them exchanged. So now ATM machines are cashless and will remain like that for years to come.
All black money has been exchanged with lower denomination notes and corrupt officers will not longer keep higher notes in cash bit only lower notes so no use of demonetization as all the notes printed by RBI will disappear in the houses of the corrupt officers who are still asking for under the table and not learnt only the public is suffering
