Cash Crunch In Villages

In Jayapur, the Uttar Pradesh village adopted by Prime Minister Narendra Modi as the parliamentarian from Varanasi, cash versus cashless is being debated in a line of about 30 people waiting to draw money from an ATM at 9 in the morning.

Archana Tamang, a 35-year-old owner of a photo studio at Hatisor village in western Assam often complained about the remoteness of her village on the Bhutan border.

A tiny village in Gujarat could not be less bothered about the great cash crunch that's giving the rest of India sleepless nights, sometimes literally, waiting in queue outside ATMs. The people of Akodara are making their payments, even for sums as small as Rs 10, through a simple phone text message.
