Shaktikanta Das said that digital transmission should be done and be safe. In a way, he has appealed to the people of the country to reduce the transaction in currency. For this, transactions have been advised through debit card, credit card and mobile app. If people will increase their currency transactions during lockdown then it is not possible without coming in contact with each other and this will keep the risk of spreading coronavirus.
