Sir — This refers to the editorial, “Note-worthy decision” (November 10). long queues at bank branches and ATM outlets, following the order of demonetisation of Rs500 and Rs1,000 notes, show the ill-preparedness of our banks. Further, there was almost a complete lack of planning on the part of the Government.
The demonetisation drive has put the country in a state of economic shock. The poor and small vendors and shop-owners are the biggest sufferers. If the situation persists, the country’s economy will fall back, leading to great chaos and a severe crisis. It is time that Government agencies addressed this issue.
