When in 1949 , George Orwell wrote his all-time classic
" Nineteen Eighty Four " , he had not envisaged Tablets /
Smart phones
So , he imagined that TV screens would keep a watch
over mankind , 24 hours , like CCTV cameras
Nor did Tim Berners Lee , envisage IoT ( Internet of Things ) or BIG DATA
analytic tools ( MapReduce / Hadoop ), when he invented World Wide Web
And neither did Robert Easton , envisage RFID sensors
when he invented GPS in 1967
But today , with wide-spread usage/application of these
technologies, it is not difficult to envisage :
CURRENCY MAPS OF INDIA
No doubt , all of us have seen following types of Maps (
for India / Asia or for the entire World ) , on TV Channels and even on our
tablets and smart phones :
# Weather Maps
, showing :
* amount of rain fall ( inches / mm )
* location wise temperature intensity ( *C / *F
)
* topography ( heights of mountains / depths of
valleys )
* Cloud Formations and direction of Storms and
landfall locations
* Wind Patterns ( velocity in km per hour )
* Ocean Currents in Atlantic / Pacific (
direction / speed )
* Ice Cover over Antarctica / Arctic Region (
sq km )
# Space Maps , showing :
* Geological formations on Moon / Mars /
Mercury / Asteroids
* Night illumination in different parts of world
as seen from Skylab
* Galactic formations , billions of light years
away
And of course , Google Maps of all types ( including
those peering into our bedrooms ! )
Given this state of art ( and of science ) , it is not
difficult to envisage ,
following types of CURRENCY MAPS of
INDIA , showing aggregate value of Rs 500 / 1000 Currency Notes ( ie : currency
density of Rs 1 million / 1 billion / 1 trillion / any figure of your liking !
) in :
* Any given Street
/ City / State
* Premises of
any Car Dealer / Jeweler Shop / Real Estate Agency / Mall /
Race Course / Builder ( any office / housing location
of your choice )
* Any Airport ( a million Rupees in Rs 500
notes weigh only 2.2 kg ! )
* Any Safe Deposit Vault of any bank
With the existing technologies , it is even possible to
plot the movement of Rs 500 / 1000 currency notes ( just one note or a thousand
notes ) on a GPS map of India , to determine its direction and velocity (
Currency Currents )
In real time , too - 24*7 !
All of the above is possible to achieve within 6 MONTHS , by :
* Abolishing
existing paper notes of Rs 500 / 1000
* Replace these
with plastic notes , embedded with RFID sensors
( can be
embedded into existing 3 mm silver-colored security wire )
* Allot a unique
IP V 6.0 address to each such note linked to its serial no
* Develop / host
a Technology Platform , based on GPS mapping system
* All smart
phones to carry GPS locator ( cannot be switched off )
( anyone carrying a Rs 500 note in wallet ,
also carries a Smart phone ! )
Of course , Currency Map App ( to be named, " Currency-Cure
" ? ), available to general public on their smart phones , will not be
able to zoom-in / drill down , under 1 sq km area, to protect individual
privacy ( this can be done , only by authorized officers of Income Tax Dept /
Enforcement Directorate )
If some of you think my suggestion is impractical ,
consider following :
A division of Master Card ( called , MasterCard
Advisors ), aggregates and analyzes , 65 BILLION transactions from 1.5 BILLION
card-holders in 210 countries , in order to divine , business and consumer
trends !
And only 2 days back , Shri Raghuram Rajan , RBI
Governor said :
" It is
because money has no odour, because it is the great equalizer , that so many
people across history have been able to acquire resources and invested them to
make the world we live in
Rather than prohibiting the use of money and wealth ,
let us think about increasing society's tolerance for its use "
Today's Hindustan Times quotes a Income Tax officers as
follows :
" The
taxman will soon start matching your IT returns with your possessions
The Government has started collecting data from various
sources and when this is done and the data has been sifted through , action
will begin
This drive is a salient feature of the tax department's
agenda to curb under-reporting of tax and expand the tax payer base in the
country "
And two days back , the person who leaked PANAMA PAPERS ( 11.5 million digitized documents ) ,
remarked :
"
Digitization will bring in a revolution "
I would like to add :
{ RFID sensors in Currency Notes + IP V
6.0 URL + GPS + HADOOP }
,
will end BLACK MONEY and CORRUPTION , in India
( without needing to pass any bill in Rajya Sabha ! )
I do hope , Shri Arun Jaitley-ji will take note !
