Divided Opposition protests against demonetisation

​New Delhi: Opposition parties took to the streets all over the country on Monday to denou­n­ce the scrapping of high value curre­ncy but the protests were largely symbolic barring in a few states.

Monday also saw the first two instances of vandalization, in Manipur, of banks by clients after they were stopped from withdrawing Rs 24,000 citing a cash crunch.

The Left called a 'Bharat Bandh' against both the November 8 demonetisation and the widespread currency shortage. Most other political parties marked it as "Aakrosh Diwas".
