RBI still processing scrapped notes 15 months post note ban
After 15 months of demonetisation, the RBI has said that returned notes are still being "processed for their arithmetical accuracy and genuineness". Replying to an RTI query, the central bank did not give an expected completion date for the process. However, it said the exercise is being done in an "expedited manner" using 59 sophisticated Currency Verification and Processing machines.
