20 Pound Bank Note

One of UK's leading umbrella groups for Hindus has said the Bank of England has assured them that concerns over the use of animal fat in the new five-pound notes were being treated with "utmost seriousness" and the new 20 pound notes would be launched only after consultations.

The artist JMW Turner will appear on the new 20 pound note, Bank of England governor Mark Carney announced on Friday.

The British public will for the first time be able to help decide which historic figure - in this case a creative one - appears on the next version of the country's 20 pound note, the Bank of England said on Tuesday.
