Now, the fake currency notes Rs 2,000 have surfaced in Bantwal taluk of Dakshina Kannada district triggering panic among the people in coastal Karnataka.

On Tuesday a resident of Punacha village near Vittla in Bantwal was taken aback after he was told that Rs 2,000 note he carried was just a colour photo copy of the original.

In a complaint to Vittla police, Krishnappa, said that he pledged his gold ring at a outlet of Muthoot Finance and got the Rs 2,000 note.

He used the note to purchase liquor at the outlet of MSIL. As he was going towards his house, two MSIL employees came in a vehicle and stopped Krishnappa. They told him that the note he had given was a colour photo copy of the original.

They took away the liquor and gave him back the note he had given them. Krishnappa went to Muthoot Finance who denied having given him the note.

He also went to the branch of Syndicate Bank from where the finance company had brought the money. The bank officials too denied that they dispensed with such a note. The police said that they are looking into the issue now.

Subbu, Mangalore,
That app is only for fun. Not for scanning the currency. It does work even on a xerox copy of new Rs.2000 note.

What Bhakts said and what happened ?

1] Demonetization will stop fake currency circulation.
- Fake currency starts off from their favourite United States of Gujarath and goes across the country.

2] It will stop terrorists funding.
- 3 terrorists held with the New Rs. 2000 note currency, while poor still stand in long queues at banks.

3] Black money will be stopped and black money holders will be jailed.
- SBI waives off loans of more than 50 loan defaulters including Vijay mallya.

4] Demonetization will boost economy
- All markets affected due to lack of sales activities in the past 2 weeks.
- Dollar is higher than ever at Rs. 68.14/ USD.

5] 15 Lakhs will surely com into ur account.
- Government takes people's own hard earned money to fee the crony capitalists, even at the cost of 56 people's death till today.

Hubballi, Jan 29: Thousands of people took part in a protest march against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA) causing traffic snarl in the city on Tuesday.

Various Dalit organisations had taken part in protest organised under the aegis of the 'Samvidana Samrakshana Samiti'.

KPCC members including MLA Prasad Abbayya, former Minister A.M. Hindasageri and office-bearers also joined the protest.

They congregated first at B.R. Ambedkar Statue near the Head Post Office in Hubballi. Holding flags and banners, the protesters marched from Ambedkar statue to mini Vidhana Soudha covering Lamington Road, Sangolli Rayanna Statue and Kittur Chennamma Circle.

Mr. Abbayya said that despite opposition from various minority communities and progressive organisations, the Union government had not changed its stand. The opposition would continue till the new law was repealed, he said.

He termed the CAA as a draconian law that meted out injustice to not only Muslims but also to Hindus. “Giving citizenship based on documents is highly condemnable. At a time when the country is undergoing an economic slowdown, it is highly condemnable that thousands of crores are being spent to enact the law. The Union government should immediately abolish the new law,” he said.

They submitted a memorandum to the Hubballi tahsildar that was addressed to the President, seeking abolition of the new law. In view of the march, the police had diverted traffic and had made elaborate bandobast.
