Cashless to CARDFULL and Saffron to SUFFERON – The insensitive Nationalists
On Demonetization I have from the start supported it for the anti-corruption element. But what makes me puke is the absolute insensitivity people in the saffron belt show when someone reports the hardships faced by the common man.
