In the rush for cash after the government's sudden notes ban, thousands have complained about long hours at banks and ATMs. 27-year-old Vignesh of Chennai decided to act. He started by taking a day off to help people waiting in queues at banks after the government suddenly pulled Rs. 500 and Rs. 1,000 notes out of circulation. Now Vignesh does it from 9 am to 6 pm daily. "Last night, when I came here to deposit and exchange notes, it was very difficult and confusing. So I realised I should just help others," he says.
