Demonetisation was self inflicted deep wound on Indian economy: Arvind Kejriwal

New Delhi, Nov 8 (IBNS): On the occasion of second anniversary of demonetisation, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday attacked the Narendra Modi government by saying the note ban policy was a self-inflicted deep wound on the Indian economy.

Nov 8 is marking the second year of the Centre's move of demonetising old Rs. 1000 and Rs. 500 Indian currency notes.

Kejriwal took to Twitter to say, "Though the list of financial scams of Modi govt is endless, demonetisation was a self inflicted deep wound on Indian economy which even two years later remains a mystery why the country was pushed into such a disaster ?"

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led central government demonetized old Indian Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000 currency notes on the same day in 2016.
