New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, during a press conference on Monday, when asked by a journalist about how much money he had, laughed and pulled out Rs 250 from his pocket.
The sobering effect of demonetisation was felt by the Delhi CM as well.
On November 8th, Narendra Modi had announced that the government was demonetising Rs 500 and RS 1000 notes effective from midnight the same day.
Since then, ordinary life has been thrown out of gear as people have been queuing up in large numbers in banks and ATMs to get some cash.
Kejriwal tore into the demonetisation move by the Centre and asked for it to be rolled back.
He also called emergency session of the Delhi Assembly on Tuesday to deal with the cash shortage.
On November 11, Rahul Gandhi arrived at SBI's Parliament Street branch to exchange notes worth Rs 4,000.
