The video shows Rajawat talking to journalists in Kota saying, “Ambani-Adani ko pehle se pata tha aur unko hint de diya gaya aur unhone apna kar liya” (Ambani and Adani were given hints of demonetisation after which they converted their money).
In the video, Rajawat also criticised the quality of new Rs 2,000 denomination, which he said appears fake on touching it.
“Adequate currency should have been printed prior to the demonetisation move keeping in view the population,” Rajawat was heard saying in the video.
Rajawat’s controversial jibe came at a time when opposition parties were accusing Modi government of giving prior information of demonetisation to industrialists and black money hoarders.
