Black money: MP CM lauds Centre's initiative to set up SIT

Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has lauded the central government's decision to constitute a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to unearth black money.

"The Union Cabinet in its maiden meeting has taken a historic decision to constitute SIT for bringing back black money stashed abroad," Chouhan posted in a tweet last night.

"A long-awaited step that shall greatly benefit the nation. This bold decision is a testimony to the fact that Modi Govt will act as promised," the senior BJP leader further tweeted.

The Narendra Modi Cabinet at its very first meeting yesterday announced that a SIT headed by former Supreme Court judge Justice M B Shah will be constituted to unearth black money.
