Vijay lauds Modi's Demonetisation effort

Days after lauding PM Narendra Modi's move to ban Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes, actor Vijay has said it is bold move by the

Central Government

. Ilayathalapathy Vijay spoke to media today expressed his thoughts on the move.

"This decision by the Central Government is a good thing. It is something that our country requires and we should welcome this bold move. I don't have any doubts that this will help in growing our country economy."

The actor added that he is aware that the decision has brought about a lot of discomfort for the common man. "When the intentions are big, there are bound to be some hassles. The hassles shouldn't grown bigger that the intentions of the move. I feel some things could have been avoided. Some general public couldn't eat and buy medicines. I felt that certain sections of the people, like the ones who make their living by earning 500 or 1000 a day, theatres, small shop traders and malls suffer for no mistake of theirs," he added.

"There would be about 20% rich people in the country. In that, for the mistake of a few percent of them, the remaining 80% people are suffering. Though the demonetisation move should be welcomed, govt should have planned well in advance to ensure that no common man suffer," said Vijay.

He further stressed that the move by the government is one of the bold moves and should be welcomed. He suggested that there could have been better precautionary measures taken.
