PM Narendra Modi — in a surprise national announcement at 8 p.m. — announced that ₹500 and ₹1,000 notes will not be considered legal, effective midnight.
Of course, the country and internet has had a meltdown and here are some of the jokes that have come out of it:
1.
Railway stations and airports will allow Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes till November 11, so that all people with black money can push off.
2.
Instead of declaring 500 & 1000 Rs notes illegal, Govt should replace Mahatma Gandhi's photo with Rahul Gandhi's to change valuation to 0.
