Manik Sarkar: Allow people to use old notes till Dec 30 to ease public inconveniences

“Eyeing the issue, I would urge people should be allowed to use Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes till alternate arrangements are not put in place, i.e. by December 30 as the Centre has set the time limit,” Sarkar wrote to Modi yesterday.

He also requested the Prime Minister to supply adequate cash to rural banks, so that people in these areas can withdraw and deposit old notes without difficulties.
