The Rs 2,000 Question: Exchange Starts, Confusion Stays?
Chaos and confusion were reported from several parts of Delhi on the first day of the exchange of Rs 2,000 currency notes on Tuesday with people complaining that banks were instead asking to deposit them and also demanding identity proofs. While the notes will still be considered legal tender, people have been instructed to either deposit existing Rs 2,000 notes in their bank accounts or exchange them at the banks.
