New Delhi, Nov 22: Demonetisation is not the end but the beginning of a "long, deep and constant" battle against black money and corruption and will benefit the poor and the common man, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said as the BJP parliamentary party passed a unanimous resolution endorsing his "great crusade".
Rallying around the PM at a time when opposition parties have united to corner the government over the measure citing hardships being faced by the masses, party MPs passed a unanimous resolution supporting demonetisation and gave him a standing ovation.
Hitting out at the rival parties, the resolution asked them to decide whether they stand by the people of India and the government or hoarders of black money.
While hailing PM's "great crusade" against corruption, it accused the opposition of trying to provoke violence and chaos and disrupt Parliament, Union Minister M Venkaiah Naidu told reporters.
"We have come to power not for us or those close to us but for the poor. For 70 years, the poor and the lower and middle classes suffered and have been exploited by black money, corruption and terrorism. Our aim is a deep, long and constant struggle against them.
"This is not the end but only a beginning of our struggle," the Prime Minister said and cited measures like setting up of a SIT on blackmoney and Income Disclosure Scheme, 2016.
The resolution said the demonetisation move had people's support, claiming it was "the most profound statement to have ever come from the country".
People are queueing up for a better India and all transformative decisions cause some pain, Naidu said.
Parliamentary Affairs Minister Ananth Kumar said the move is in benefit of the country and its people.
Terming it as a historic decision, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley also briefed the party MPs about different facets of the move and how it will help the economy.

Before fooling the citizens, use your common sense, Don't think all are fools like you and your MPs.
Q1 : Why the move came just now only why not when you took-over
Q2 : Don't you know where is the black money, to knock which door.
Q3 : Do you think the those more than 70 people who died while standing on Q to get change from the bank. What about elderly suffered and became sick.
In the world there is no other stupid PM like you who did not think before taking such gravely step.
Still you have time to accept the old currencies and chase those criminals who have black money which you and your people know it very well
Don't do stupid moves at the cost of innocent's lives.
