Mumbai:
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has clarified that the
cash transactions across all its branches will take place
only in unstapled notes.
Further,
there is no truth in the reports that the RBI office in
Kolkata itself does not follow the directive relating
to unstapling of note packets, says the apex bank. "Even
the non-fresh but reissuable notes are being issued by
the RBI across the counters in unstapled condition with
cross-banding of note packets."
The
RBI further says that ample supply of fresh and reissuable
notes
of good quality and coins has been made available to the
public
throughout the country. About 20 billion pieces of soiled
notes have been removed from circulation in the recent
months by modernisation at the RBI.
