What do you think about 2000 rs note issued by Govt of India?

In my opinion, its a beautifully designed note which also represent Mars mission which is a big achievement of our country. But Iam also skeptical about its benefits, it will make it easy for dishonest people to hoard their black money in the future. what you think about it?

I think that the point about the issue of the new notes was that they are very much more difficult to forge. I understood that the problem with the old notes was that they were many forgeries. People with 'black' money will always find ways of keeping it away from the eyes of officials, no matter what the value of the notes issued is.

Yes, it was actually a reason of Black money and fake currency which was curbed by demonetisation and printing new notes which are on unique papers.

I agree that bad people always find a way to hide things, but at least they got some hard time trying the same. And i am sure, many people will loose big parts of their black money this time for sure

i liked the note. I am not sure about future, but it certainly is giving tough time to corrupt people presently.

but I also see opportunity for these same corrupt people in the future. because in future they will have to hide only one note for 2000 value as opposed to two 1000 note. it will be easier and also 2000 rs note is smaller in size.

This is beautiful note with good presentation. However your fear is not very easy as these notes are printed on unique papers and it is not possible for years to make fake currency of such notes. As for black money, people can make black money only in money and not number of notes. 100000 as 10n notes of 1000 or 50 notes of 2000, it won't make hoard. By the way a lesson is learned by all.

It looks a very attractive note but as I know nothing about your economy I can't comment on whether it will be good or not.

@JudyEv another reason was fake currency from Pakistan. Of course this is truth. Indian govt's decision of demonetisation of old high value currency made the forged currency to value 0

@hiteshwarsumra Thank you for the explanation. I didn't realise that was the reason for the demonetisation. I suppose that makes quite a bit of sense.

i will explain a little here about our economy. its the fastest growing economy in the world, but a large amount of economy is shadowed by corruption and these dishonest people of our country hide lots of cash in their homes or other places which they have earned illegally. so the govt. decided to demonetize the 500 and 1000 rs note which are replaced by new 500 and 2000 rs note. so these blackmoney holders either have to replace this money which will give them legal troubles or they have to burn or destroy it as these old currency notes are worthless....

@amitkokiladitya there is no flaw, everything done is in perfect way, these people with fake currency are sobbing because this note is in such unique tech that now it is impossible to make forged currency.

I think it was designed to reduce the currency shortage before they can release the next note of 1000 Rs.
