Tribune Web Desk

Chandigarh, May 19

News of RBI notification proclaiming withdrawal of Rs 2000 denomination notes has taken centre stage across social media platforms with netizens fuelling a meme fest over the decision.

Drawing parallels with the demonetisation exercise that took place back in 2016, the outrage on social media is fervid as people are sharing rib-tickling memes while bidding farewell to the outgoing pink note.
