FAQs

  • Why was the scheme introduced?

The incidence of fake Indian currency notes in higher denomination has increased. For ordinary people, the fake notes look similar to genuine notes, even though no security feature has been copied.The fake notes are used for anti-national and illegal activities. High denomination notes have been misused by terrorists and for hoarding black money.
