Supporters of
Demonetization
to combat corruption and crime
(counterfeiting,tax evasion)
to discourage a cash-dependent
economy
In its true sense, the withdrawal of the
500 and 1000 rupee notes in India is
not demonetization in its true sense as
Indians are allowed to convert them to
bank deposits provided they can prove
that the money was legitimately
earned. So Indian authorities write off
the liability of only those banknotes
which do not come back to the
system; in other words, only this
portion is truly demonetized.
