Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad has called for an anti-demonetisation rally in Patna on November 8, the day when Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced scrapping of high value currency notes of Rs 500 and Rs 1000 last year. Calling demonetisation a "black order" passed by the Centre, Lalu Prasad said that his party will be organising rallies in all the 38 districts of Bihar on November 8. "The Centre has destroyed the economy of the country through demonetisation which was a black order passed by PM Modi. Inflation is also at an all-time high," claimed Lalu Prasad. My party will not shy away from our responsibility and we will tell people what further problems they may face because of the black order of the Centre," said Lalu.
