In conversation with Leaders Speak, The Minister of State for Finance in the Government of India, Santosh Gangwar hopefull for the outlook of cashless ecnomoy in India. Below is the gist of conversation.
Q: Opposition parties are blaming that the Centre’s decision to present the Union Budget on February 1 has sole purpose to woo voters through tempting schemes?
A: Things will become clear soon, but our sole purpose to launch this budget so early, to utilize the Budget well. It has nothing to do with the state polls. We are trying to pass the Budget by March 31 to enable a systematic flow of work. Earlier the entire process to pass the Budget used to last until May or June, and therefore in the first three months of the financial year, no new work could begin. Therefore, we are trying to make it systematic so that the Budget can be passed by March 31.
Q: What are the possibilities and new announcement in upcoming budget?
A: The government is aware of tax relief demands to hike the exemption limit. We are reviewing the proposal. The current tax exemption limit is upto Rs 2.5 lakh annual income, which according to sources could be hiked in the upcoming budget. Another big announcement expected is on the digital economy push. We want to promote cashless economy and now the situation is improving every day. Currently, consumers don’t have to pay any charge on card transaction but we will review all the measures to promote digital economy.

Demonetization for Richer or for Poorer
Remember the times, when Baba Ramdev used to come on debates and fasten on his idea of economics and often suggests that ‘We should encourage small currency rather than big tenders’, The idea hark back live on the evening of 8th November, While taking a historical but stunning stand, The Union Government has decided to do away with Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000 currency notes from midnight on 8th November. These notes will cease to be legal tender from the midnight of November 8, 2016, announced Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his television address to the nation on the same day. “The value of these notes becomes merely a paper,” he said in Hindi, adding that the move is to curb the circulation of counterfeit notes and fight black money.
A Tipping Point Missed
Before America and the world settle in firmly to the new Donald Trumpbased reality, let’s take a little trip down the road not taken. Suppose we had woken up last Wednesday morning to a President-elect Hillary Clinton. And let’s say that, instead of former Portuguese Prime Minister António Guterres, New Zealand’s Helen Clark or Bulgaria’s Kristalina Georgieva had been picked to succeed Ban Ki-moon as United Nations Secretary-General.Clinton would have joined the United Kingdom’s Theresa May and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, helping achieve critical mass in the G7. And a female UN Secretary General would have placed women at the helm of two of the world’s three biggest international organizations (France’s Christine Lagarde already runs the International Monetary Fund).

Opportunities in Higher Education
The whole article is divided into 3 parts i.e. Opportunities in higher education, need of global tie ups and research based education. So let’s start with the first one that is opportunity in higher education.Its pity to see that, only 8% of the population reaches to the level of higher education. Governments (central and states) jointly have invested lakhs of crores... but what did they get in return... nill bate sannata... as we don’t know that what actually do we need from this education.
Coping With Exam Stress
The exam season is inevitably associated with words like stress, tension, worries and pressures in our minds. Be it when the exams are approaching, ongoing or when awaiting the exam results. Moreover, the stress levels increase not only for the students, but also for their parents, teachers, tutors, family members at large! However, the ultimate onus eventually falls back on the student, who is responsible for not only working towards performing successfully in the exams, but also to be able to manage the accompanying stressors eff ectively. Furthermore, besides the academic workloads, these additional stressors could vary from the worry of their parents, the expectations of the teachers, the comparison and competition with their peers, or the nagging from their tutors.

leaders don't create followers... they create more leaders
the essence of transformational theories is that leaders transform their followers through their inspirational nature and charismatic personalities. rules and regulations are flexible, guided by group norms. these attributes provide a sense of belonging for the followers as they can easily identify with the leader and its purpose.
