Savers and depositors are in tears while borrowers are rejoicing as interest rates continue to come down, a ongoing trend over multiple years. State Bank of India has cut rates and others banks will follow. Rates on 2 and 3 year deposit rates have been reduced to below 7%, rates, which are well below the 9% and more in years past. These rate reductions and now being seeing in post office savings schemes, annual DA rates of increase, PF interest rates and annual salary increases. So why is this happening: in a good way due to lower inflation, strong economic growth, improved tax collections and surplus funds with the banks due to demonetization. As you worry about this, you should note how lucky a depositor still is, as 3 year deposit rates in some western countries are around 2% only, think about that.

"The Kashmir Files" shows only a small part of this. Should a Kashmir Genocide Law be made and the atrocities be fully investigated?
