At dusk on 8 November, Prime Minister Narendra Modi claimed to have launched a war against black money with his demonetisation announcement. After he sought 50 days to bring things back to normalcy, a lot was expected from PM Modi on 30 December, when the 30-day period ended.

Fast forward to that day, and all we got is a promise to make India a cashless economy, and the launch of BHIM (Bharat Inteface for Money).

This is UPI-based app, seen as an alternative to Paytm, has been developed by the National Payment Corporation of India (NPCI), an umbrella organisation for all retail payment systems in India.
