NEW DELHI, Aug 08: Congress allegation of two types of Rs. 500 notes printed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) provoked a huge row in parliament today and lead to adjournment in the Rajya Sabha.
The Congress leaders displaying images of two Rs. 500 notes in the Rajya Sabha, said they were of different sizes and designs and alleged it to be the biggest scam of the century.
"Today we have discovered why the government took the demonetisation decision. The RBI prints two types of currency notes. These are of different size and different design... how is it possible?" questioned Congress leader Kapil Sibal, waving a placard with the two notes.
