Ready to pay political price for steps taken for better India: PM Narendra Modi

Addressing a gathering, he said his government is committed to developing a development-centric eco system which is free of corruption and is citizen centric.

He also said that post demonetisation, the black money, which was part of a parallel economy, has now become part of the formal system.

Inaugurating the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit, Modi said data mining after the note ban is also helping government track down those involved in corruption.

Appreciating the role of Aadhaar in delivering services to the people and also checking pilferages, he said the system would also work as a tool to track down benami properties.
