Chartered accountants in PM’s line of fire


IN the nearly hour long speech that Prime Minister Narendra Modi delivered on the ‘CA day’, on July 1, 2017, which also happened to be anniversary day of the establishment of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), it is said, with utmost respect, that the PM has been unduly harsh towards Chartered Accountants of India (CAs) and their apex body, which, undoubtedly, is an important profession and helps the government and the economy to proceed successfully in their onward journeys. When I am penning these lines, I am not holding any brief for the errant and uncouth CAs, who defame the profession by their misdeeds. Black sheep can be found in any walk of life, but their few numbers can hardly justify condemning an entire group or profession. 
They were extremely busy during the demonetisation period. Some of them even cancelled their foreign holiday trips and worked round the clock to facilitate conversion of black money into white money.
