It may be mentioned that the opposition parties have united against the notes ban decision of Centre since PM has announced it on November 8 last. More than 200 Members of Parliament also protested against PM Modi and his government’s decision regarding demonetisation and also Aam Admi Party national convener Arvind Kejriwal has declared it as the ‘biggest scam’ in Indian history.

The opposition uproar has also led to disruption in the proceedings of both the houses in Parliament.
