Fake currency notes have always been around

India has always been a target of 'economic terrorism.' Friends and foes alike, it has been subjected by a number of countries, to a free inflow of fake currency notes. Pakistan is only a very small player compared to what the Russians have been doing in their heydays. The God must be thanked for the fact that the fearful 'friend,' that the USSR was, does no longer exist.
Counterfeit currency is a tool of state warfare. If Pakistan is pumping in such paper money, its natural. India and only India itself must find a way to protect itself from such a onslaught.
Expect that Pakistan must also have the willing concent, or otherwise, of the USA.
In the past, the Russians were known to fund their favourite journalists, the Communists and of cource the politicians who carried the banner of the 'USSR being a friend of India.' Bagfuls of fake currency notes arrived through diplomatic channels, particularly at the time of Parliamentary elections.
If there has been a rise in number of such cases coming to light, its because the culprits have become lenient. Its not for nothing that the catch was unearthed in a nationalised bank branch. The SBI staff working there must have been given some sort of training to identify the counterfeit money. Haven't they? How come they have not been able to identify such a huge amount of money, all in shape of Rs1000 notes, for such a long time?
The case has naturally been transfered to the CBI, the best agency in India to protect the powerful and crush the helpless. The matter would now go to some sort of investigation that would last till eternity.
People are expected to be forgetful.
