In a bid to promote cashless and digital economy, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced demonetisation on November 08. The sudden declaration on televisions in the evening came as a cash shock to people, who are still facing problems and lining outside banks and ATMs to withdraw.

Modi scrapped old Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes, saying this will crack a whip on black money hoarders and encourage more and more Indians to open bank accounts. Since demonetisation, banks have received at least Rs 6 trillion and this figure is likely to go up.
