December 31: PM Modi addresses the nation on demonetisation's success

33% more homes will be construct in rural India. 

Poor people will be at the centre of our new schemes. 

In 2017, people living in rural India who want to contruct homes or expand their homes, they will get 3% discount on interest of loans up to Rs 2 lakh.

Govt is working to bring new schemes for the people of this country. 

So many years since independence, yet Indians do not have access to even buying homes. 

So that poor people can buy homes, we have taken big decisions. 

Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna: Poor will get homes in cities under two new schemes. 

In 2017, to construct homes, upto Rs 9 lakh loan or Rs 12 lakh discount on interest of 4% or 3% will be given. 

The money that was out of Indian economy is now back in Indian economy. 

It is proved that people who try to find ways out of this have nowhere to go now. 

Technology has helped a lot in this. 

Corrupt will have to come to the mainstream now. They have no option. 

Friends, bank employees have worked day and night to help in this demonetisation drive. 

People working in post offices, women bank officers, everyone has worked very well. 

Yes, few banks saw serious offences by bank officers. Some Govt officials were also caught red-handed. 

All these people will not be spared. 

Our one decision on demonetisation has done deep damage to the corrupt. 

Many youngsters are now leaving violence and coming back to mainstream.

ये सरकार सज्जनों की मित्र है और दुर्जनों को सज्जनता के रास्ते पर लौटाने के लिए उपयुक्त वातावरण को तैयार करने के पक्ष में है: PM

Only 24 lakh people in India accept that they earn more than Rs 10 lakh a year. 

You see big houses and cars around you. 

Look at big cities in India, you will see lakhs of people will income more than Rs 10 lakh a year. 

Don't you think we should give more power to the fight against corruption and black money? 

The question is now very valid: what will happen to the corrupt? 

Friends, law will do its work. 

However, the Govt must also make sure that the honest must be helped and protected. 

I know you had to stand in queues for hours to withdraw your own money from banks. 

I got many letters during this time. Many wrote their suggestions, shared pains. I noticed that in all those letters, you took me as one of your own.

The war against black money, you don't want to be behind even by one step. 

Your love is my blessing. 

My effort is to as fast as possible normalise banks. 

Govt has told banks that the focus should be to normalise banks, especially in rural and farflung areas.
