CONFISCATE THE ILL-GOTTEN WEALTH IN SWISS BANKS

This refers to It’s an economic problem, keep politics out of it (November 2) by Sanjoy Narayan. The Supreme Court has directed the government to reveal the names of the Indian nationals who hold Swiss bank accounts. However, it is rightly said that all money in foreign banks may not be black. But the money there must be brought back to India. Apart from businesspersons, many politicians allegedly have foreign bank accounts. Revealing names is not enough. Such wealth must be confiscated and adequate punishment should be meted out to the offenders.
