The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) in a statement on Monday said that there is no consideration to change the face of Mahatma Gandhi on the currency in the country. At the same time, it has also been said that, "There are reports in some places in the media that the Reserve Bank of India is considering to make changes in the existing currency and banknotes. In fact, the central bank says, "Reports have said that they are considering replacing Mahatma Gandhi's face with others. However, note that no such proposal exists in the Reserve Bank. Let us tell you that the central bank has given this information by issuing a press release on Monday.

Yes, you must have known that earlier, media reports had said that the Reserve Bank of India was the first time that the currency was on The Rabindranath Tagore and Dr. APJ is in the process of putting up a photograph of Abdul Kalam. Not only this, it was also said that so far only the picture of Mahatma Gandhi has been seen on the Indian currency, but soon the photo of other great men of the country can also be seen on the notes. In fact, a report that came out said that the Finance Ministry and the RBI may soon take a big step to bring about this change in the note. It has been prepared two sets, which have been sent to IIT Delhi Emeritus Professor Dilip T Shahani. At the same time, it was also said that Prof. Sahni has been given the responsibility of selecting one of these sets. According to media reports, two separate sets of watermarked photographs of Mahatma Gandhi, Rabindranath Tagore and APJ Abdul Kalam were sent to Professor Sahni on behalf of the Security Printing and Minting Corporation of India, which works under the RBI.

They were asked to select one of the two sets and send it to the government. Let us tell you all that the Reserve Bank of India first put gandhiji's picture in 1969 as a mark of 100 rupee notes as a reminder. Yes and this year was his birth centenary year and there was also the Sevagram Ashram behind his picture on the notes. You know that the currency notes with gandhiji's current portrait first came in 1987. At the same time, with this picture of Gandhiji's smiling face, the 500 rupee note was first introduced in October 1987 and after this, this picture of Gandhiji started being used on other currency notes as well.
