Congress Rajya Sabha MP Digvijaya Singh Tuesday hit out at the Centre over Reserve Bank`s announcement of withdrawal of Rs 2,000 currency notes. Digvijaya said that the government should first explain why the Rs 2,000 note was introduced, news agency PTI reported.
On what has been seen as a surprising development, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) last Friday made announcement of withdrawal of Rs 2,000 currency notes, but gave the public time till September 30 to either deposit the notes in accounts or exchange them at banks. The RBI said it had asked banks to stop issuing Rs 2,000 notes with immediate effect.
