Respected Sir
Sub: Request for supply of fake currency detecting machine to all HO/SOs at once reg.
You are aware that our honorable. Prime Minister Shri.Modiji had announced that Rs.500. and, Rs.1000. denomination currency will not be valid from 08.11.2016 midnight. Further, he announced that the exchange of these currencies will be done at banks and post offices. Since the majority of our HO/SOS does not have the fake currency detecting machine, during the exchange of old currencies it will be difficult to detect the fake currency. Hence it is requested to supply of fake currency detecting machines to all HO/SOs on a war-putting measure.
A line in reply is very much appreciated.
Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,
D.Thegarajan,
Secretary General.
