18 Lakh Account Holders

While tightening the noose around 18 lakh account holders whose incomes don't match their deposits in numerous banks across the country after Prime Minister Narendra Modi's demonetisation announcement in November last year, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley promised in the Lok Sabha today the offenders will be taken to task.

Emails and text messages have been sent today to the majority of 18 lakh people identified for making suspicious and large cash deposits after Prime Minister Narendra Modi's sudden abolition of high-value notes.

The government today said nearly 1.65 lakh Jan Dhan account holders, of the total 18 crore accounts opened under the scheme, have availed overdraft facility.
