Sub: My views

Though I am welcoming the Rules for declaration of assets by public servant, it put me into a precarious situation because so far I have not asked my wife about her jewellery. Because except in one or two occasions due to damaged she changed and bought a new one to the extent of old one or less than it according to the market value. So far I have not added any jewellery. But the new Rules forcing me to ask my wife to inform what the assets of gold jewellery/silver articles she have. Surely it pricks my consciousness that whether I have any right to enter into her privacy.
