Should gold imports be halted till things get better
if outside gold doesnt come to India, wont we retain our savings and have higher surplus for investments.
Also, this will stop gold smuggling, hawala market & parallel economy.
Please share your views. If enough of us think so, perhaps PMO will give it serious thought. more
