₹2,000 notes have no GPS-tracking nano chip
The new ₹2,000 notes being issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) do not have a GPS-tracking nano chip installed in it, as was rumoured before. The banks across India started issuing ₹2,000 notes with magenta base colour and a motif of Mangalyaan on the reverse, also having the signature of RBI governor Urjit Patel from Thursday.
