Mumbai, Jul 19 (IANS): The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Thursday said it will soon issue Rs 100 denomination bank notes.

According to the RBI, the new bank notes will be in the "Mahatma Gandhi (New) Series".

"The new denomination has motif of 'RANI KI VAV' on the reverse, depicting the country's cultural heritage," the apex bank said in a statement.

"The base colour of the note is lavender. The note has other designs, geometric patterns aligning with the overall colour scheme, both at the obverse and reverse."

As per the statement, all the earlier series of bank notes in Rs 100 denomination will continue to be legal tender.

"As is normal, when a new design of banknote is introduced, printing and supply of these notes for distribution to public through the banking channel will gradually increase," the statement added.

    Nathuram Godse's picture would have been ideal in new Rs 100 notes. This would have highlighted Modi govt's exceptional development and service to the the poor and especially the farmers.

    The color of the currency is not an importance but its security features and life does matter.
    Unlike Dollars, Indian currency mostly printed on imported special material from Switzerland does not last long due to the Indian condition and a number of hands get exchanged.

    Matching lavender color to women's sanitary napkin brand is not a solution.

    Modi govt's major achievements are Changing the Notes, Changing the colour of the Notes, Painting the buildings with new colour, renaming the previous UPA govt's policies etc. He could not achieve anything other than this.
