The lead of this article needs, in the very first sentence, to explicitly state what "black money" is. Maybe the term is common in India, but it has no meaning to me as a speaker of US English. Clarify, please. Qwyrxian ( talk) 05:56, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
What are Crores? Isn't India's currency in Indian Rupees? -- DThomsen8 ( talk) 01:23, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
Here's a reference to Black Money in the Times of India (online) http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-12-15/india/30519771_1_names-of-account-holders-black-money-money-in-foreign-banks 80.176.88.36 ( talk) 20:55, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
In Feb 2012, CBI director A P Singh speaking at the inauguration of first Interpol global programme on anti-corruption and asset recovery made a lot of candid statements about state of affairs on causes, investigation, govt. approach toward black money. Criticizing govt. lack of intent he said: "यथा राजा तथा प्रजा. In other words, if the King is immoral so would be his subjects" This was widely quoted and discussed in Indian print media as well as electronic media. There was considerable attention to this statement even on the twitter. The reasons for such a wide discussion could be: 1. These statements come from a person who is the top most officer of the top most anti corruption agency in India. 2. This was first such acceptance from a govt. agency about black money. 3. Black money has become one of the most talked about issues in India after 2011 Indian anti-corruption movement. The issue becomes much more important in light of links between black money and serious issues like terrorism, drug, illegal arms business, etc. 4. It succinctly puts forth limitations of investigating agency in light of govt. lack of will power in tackling black money. So, to highlight these points, wikipedia should contain changes in revision 476803409. AgniKalpa 03:02, 20 February 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by AgniKalpa ( talk • contribs)
I have listed only few of the most read pages. There would be more links discussing this issue. I didn't add all these in the article because i thought it would make it clumsy and too much referencing. But I could add these now. AgniKalpa 02:37, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
