Pakistan prints more Indian currency than its own rupee!

Pakistan was printing good copies of Indian currency notes.

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi's bold decision to scrap Rs 1000 and Rs 500 currency notes will not just break the black money market in the country but, more importantly, hit the Pakistan-sponsored terror funding network.

As per Deputy Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir, Nirmal Singh, Pakistan prints more Indian currency than Pakistani currency.

Singh's comments echo media reports that claimed that Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICNs) are printed in government presses in Lahore, Quetta, and Peshawar.

The ISI then smuggled FICNs into India via Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bangladesh. Smugglers are sold the FICNs in 2:1 ratio – two fake notes for the value of one original.

The problem was accentuated when Pakistan began printing good copies of original currency notes.

And all this money was pumped into India to fund terrorist activities.

There are also indications that over Rs 100 crore of the fake currency was distributed in Kashmir to fuel unrest.

"This decision is a death blow to terror funding network. This step was necessary for national security," BJP leader Subramanian Swamy said.
