Ever since the change of government in bangladesh, many changes are being seen there. Recently, the Central bank of bangladesh issued new notes of 20, 50 and 1000 taka on Sunday, from which the picture of Sheikh Hasina's father and founder and former President of bangladesh Sheikh Mujibur rahman has been removed. Regarding this, Central bank spokesperson Arif Hussain Khan has said in his statement that the new design will not have the picture of any person, but the traditional places of the country have been given place on it.
Arif Hussain Khan says that pictures of Hindu and Buddhist temples will be printed on the new notes. Let us tell you that since the formation of bangladesh in 1971, the design of these notes has been changed about five times till now. Do you know what are the rules regarding putting and removing pictures on notes in India. Let's know.
What are the rules for printing pictures in India?
A few years ago, there were reports in india that Gandhiji's picture would be removed from the notes, but later it was denied that there was nothing like that. Talking about the rules of pictures on notes in india, the Reserve bank had told in the information sought under the Right to Information that under Section 25 of the RBI Act 1934, the central bank and the central government together decide to print the picture on the note. Even if there is a need to make any change in it, then both the panels will decide together and only then this change can be made.
When was Gandhiji's picture printed on the note in India?
The decision to print pictures on notes in india is more politically motivated than rules and there is more interference of the central government in it. The process of printing Gandhiji's picture on notes in india was taken in the year 1966. Before this, the photo of Ashoka Pillar was printed on the notes. Apart from this, pictures like Royal bengal Tigers, Agriculture, Aryabhatta Satellite and Shalimar Garden have also been printed on the notes. In india, in the year 2016, there was a talk of putting the photo of Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar in place of the photo of mahatma gandhi, although later this decision was postponed.
