Naidu Calls For Withdrawal of 500 Currency Notes?

Over the past three days, significant meetings of the TDP were conducted under the leadership of Chandra Babu Naidu. This marked a historic moment for the party, as it held its meeting in Kaddappa in 43 years. Once a stronghold of the Congress party until 2019, Kaddappa has since been represented by the YSR Congress of Jagan. Naidu, aware of the impending state elections, urged party members to mobilize and secure victories in all ten assembly seats. Currently, the TDP holds seven of these seats source says. In front of a gathering of nearly 500,000, Naidu expressed a clear directive: if the central government is truly committed to fighting corruption, it must promptly withdraw high-denomination currency from circulation. He advocated for the introduction of digital currency as a viable alternative. Reflecting on his previous role as an ally of the NDA in 2016, he noted that he was part of a committee that recommended demonetization to promote a cashless economy source says.
