It is a very good decision by the Central government that Rs 2.5 lakhs can be withdrawn from one’s bank account for marriage by showing adequate proof like a wedding card, etc. But the restrictions that one should produce receipts are entirely baseless. In the first place, why conditions are being imposed on withdrawing one’s own money from bank account? It is our own hard- earned money which we have earned since the time we were 18 years of age. Why is the government harassing the common man to eliminate black money? On the other hand, demonetisation of Rs 1000 and Rs 500, though had been introduced to wipe out corruption has done more harm for the common man and has paralysed the economy.
