Rs 2,000 notes withdrawn to divert attention from BJP's defeat: SP's Yadav

Samajwadi Party general secretary Ram Gopal Yadav on Tuesday alleged the move to withdraw Rs 2,000 currency notes from circulation has been taken to divert attention from the ruling BJP's defeat in the Karnataka assembly elections. Yadav was referring to the Reserve Bank of India's announcement last week to withdraw the Rs 2,000 currency notes from circulation. The RBI gave the public time till September 30 to either deposit such notes in accounts or exchange them at banks. Responding to queries on the move, Yadav said, "They (BJP) do not understand what should be done and what should not be done. They have become disoriented. This has been done because they lost badly in the Karnataka elections. This new trick is to divert the attention of the people." Dubbing the move as a "Tughlaqi farmaan (diktat)", the SP leader said, "During our student days, we studied in our history class that Muhammad bin Tughlaq first shifted his capital from Delhi to Daulatabad and then back to Delhi sayi

Cash sales at petrol pump spike to 90% as people rush to use Rs 2,000 notes

Cash purchase of fuel at petrol pumps using Rs 2,000 notes has spiked to almost 90 per cent of daily sales as buyers rushed to tender the withdrawn currency notes. Petrol pump dealers said cash sales before the surprise announcement on Friday of the withdrawal of the Rs 2,000 note was only 10 per cent, but now customers were using the withdrawn note to make small purchases of Rs 100/200, expecting petrol pumps to return change. They have now asked the Reserve Bank to instruct banks to provide enough small denomination notes to help serve customers smoothly. "Majority of the customers are trying to use Rs 2,000 notes even for small purchases of Rs 100-200 and are expected change from the petrol pumps and hence the petro outlets are extremely short of change across the country," All India Petroleum Dealers Association president Ajay Bansal said in a statement. It said the petrol pump dealers have been requesting customers to use the card or digital payment for fuel purchases. "Befor

Impact of Rs 2,000 notes withdrawal marginal on economy: Shaktikanta Das

Reserve Bank Governor Shaktikanta Das on Monday said the impact of withdrawal of Rs 2,000 currency notes will be "very very marginal" on the economy because it accounts for only 10.8 per cent of currency in circulation. Describing the withdrawal exercise as part of currency management operations of the Reserve Bank, he said, he expects most of the withdrawn Rs 2,000 notes to be returned to the exchequer by the deadline of September 30. Talking to reporters, Das said, "the impact of this on the economy will be very very marginal because it is only 10.8 per cent of currency in circulation. As you know that Rs 2,000 notes were not commonly used in any transaction We have found that it is hardly being used for carrying out transactions. Therefore, economic activity will not be impacted." As part of a clean note policy, he said, RBI has been conducting such exercise of withdrawal of currency notes from time to time and such exercise was undertaken in 2013-14, whereby the notes which we

Haryana's Home Minister Anil Vij has said that those who accumulated Rs 2,000 currency notes illegally are the ones crying over the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) decision to withdraw them from circulation. In a surprise move, the RBI on Friday announced the withdrawal of Rs 2,000 currency notes from circulation but gave the public time till September 30 to either deposit such notes in accounts or exchange them at banks. It said it had asked banks to stop issuing Rs 2,000 notes with immediate effect.
