“Finance Minister P Chidambaram today asked countrymen to contain their ‘uncontrolled passion’ for gold and instead save in financial instruments. ‘Have faith in our financial sector. Unfortunately, we have difficulty shedding our old habits and put our money in gold,’ he said while speaking at an event to mark the platinum anniversary celebrations of state-run Dena Bank. ‘The uncontrolled passion for gold must be contained,’ Chidambaram said. People should rather switch to financial products to funnel their savings, the Minister said and added the soon to be launched inflation indexed bonds is a very lucrative option.”
