The Government of India demonetized the existing indian currency of ₹1000 and ₹ 500 on the evening of TUESDAY 8 NOVEMBER, 2017.

The Prime Minister Sh. Narendra Damodar Das Modi himself announced the demonetization of the currency.

▶ Corruption
▶ Black Money and Printing of fake currencies.

Since the currencies were demonetized the need of currency arise and Govt. must had to issue the new currencies.

Later, The RESERVE BANK OF INDIA issued the new currencies of ₹2000 and ₹ 500 in its initial process.

Hi friend,

Your answer:

After demonetization happened, people's pockets were filled with new colorful currencies. The government had hoped that the release of new notes would stop counterfeiting of money, atleast for a while. But they were wrong. Counterfeiting of money started soon. But here are some ways through which people can distinguish between fake and real currency notes quite easily. Based on these features, you can easily distinguish fake currency from real ones: 

1. Mahatma Gandhi portrait and Electrotype 2000 Watermark - The most common and well known feature of real currency. 

2.  Five angular bleed lines on left and right side in raised print.

3. The obverse or front side of 2000 rupees note has windowed security thread with inscriptions 'भारत', RBI and 2000 whose colour changes from green to blue when the note is tilted.

4. There is a hidden image of the numeral 2000 on the note which can be seen when held at a 45-degree angle.

5. For visually impaired, raised printing of Mahatma Gandhi portrait, Ashok pillar, bleed lines and identification mark is present.

6. The new Rs.2,000 denomination note  has Motif of Mangalayan on the reverse.

7. Presence of ‘RBI’ and ‘2000’ in micro-letters on the left side of the banknote.

8. On the right hand side of the new currency note there is a section that displays random designs of flowers and motifs, but when seen horizontally at eye level you can see the image of the denomination printed here.

9. On the number panel, numerals growing small to big on top left and bottom right are present.

10. Presence of year of printing of the note on the left side.

11. The 500 rupees note has the image of Red fort with Indian flag on the back side. 

The above were some features through which one can easily detect fake notes.

Hope it helps!
