Claim: RBI issued new guidelines to banks to treat scribbled notes as invalid.
Fact-check: RBI did not issue any new guidelines to banks to treat scribbled notes as invalid - FACTLY
Verdict: rbi did not issue any such new guidelines stating scribbled bank notes as invalid. rbi on their website clearly stated that all bank notes with writings or colour stains on them will continue to be legal tender, provided they are decipherable. lately, the press information bureau  through a tweet clarified the same saying that bank notes with scribblings on them will still continue to be legal tender. hence, the claim made in the post is false.
