Priyanka Gandhi Upon 5th Anniversary Of Demonetization Calls It A 'Disaster'
Prime Minister Narendra Modi had declared to abolish all currency notes of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 on November 8, 2016. Priyanka Gandhi on the fifth anniversary of "demonetization" called it a "disaster," and questioned if the measure was effective, why hasn't corruption stopped, and black money returned to the country. Congress claimed that "demonetization" was not in the best interest of the people and had negative economic consequences.
