Delivering a warning to tax evaders to come clean on undisclosed income, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday held out the example of a retired fellow citizen who regularly contributes a part of his modest pension towards the government's social development programmes.
"Particularly for those who have undisclosed income, I would like to present an example, " Modi said in his monthly "Mann ki Baat" radio address.
"Whether my words have any effect on tax evaders, the example of Chandrakant Kulkarni, whom I met in the smart cities event in Pune on Saturday will surely influence them, " Modi said.
He elaborated how Kulkarni, with a monthly pension of Rs 16, 000, contributes Rs 5, 000 every month towards the Clean India initiative.
