Letters: BJP keeps its word

This refers to the report "SIT given black money list, asked to act on it" (October 29). Irrespective of the Centre submitting the entire list of names pertaining to accounts held by Indians in Swiss banks, to the apex court, disclosing even a single name of those who stashed away black money in tax havens is significant. For, there has just been a talk about it without any concrete results.

Instead of welcoming the progress made in tracking the black money stashed abroad, Congress leader Digvijaya Singh terming the disclosure "black mail" smacks of hypocrisy since the Grand Old party failed to do anything about black money when it was in power. Meanwhile, the Narendra Modi-led Bharatiya Janata Party government must be complimented for taking the issue of of black money to its logical conclusion.
