Mr. Sagar is telling on World Wide economy crises

RBI extends the Date for Withdrawal of Pre-2005 Series Banknotes The Reserve Bank of India has extended the date for the public to exchange their pre-2005 banknotes till December 31, 2015. It had, in December 2014, set the last date for public to exchange these notes as June 30, 2015. Soliciting cooperation from members of public in withdrawing these banknotes from circulation, the Reserve Bank of India has urged them to deposit the old design notes in their bank accounts or exchange them at a bank branch convenient to them. The Reserve Bank has stated that the notes can be exchanged for their full value. The RBI has also clarified that all such notes continue to remain legal tender. The Reserve Bank said that the banknotes in Mahatma Gandhi series have now been in circulation for a decade. A majority of the old banknotes have been withdrawn through bank branches. It has, therefore, decided to withdraw the remaining old design notes from circulation. The Reserve Bank has pointed out that not having currency notes in multiple series in circulation at the same time is a standard international practice. The Reserve Bank will continue to monitor and review the process so that there is no inconvenience to the public in any manner.
