DelhiDesk: The Reserve Bank of India announced the withdrawal of the 2000 rupee note, causing some disturbance among the public. However, the RBI has allowed people to exchange the notes in banks until September 30, and there is no need to worry or rush. Demand for gold suddenly increased with the announcement, and people have been using the notes to buy household items such as air conditioners and refrigerators. There has also been an increase in the payment of 2000 notes at petrol pumps. No form or ID is required to exchange up to 10 notes, and the notes will remain legal tender until September 30. This ban is different from the 2016 demonetization because the 2000 notes will still be valid until the deadline.
