The Reserve Bank of India
will shortly issue Rs.20 denomination banknotes with inset letter 'R' in both
numbering panels in Mahatma Gandhi Series with additional/new security features
bearing the signature of Dr. Y.V. Reddy, Governor. Except for the change in the
inset letter, the design of these notes to be issued now is similar in all respects
to the banknotes issued earlier in Mahatma Gandhi Series with additional/new security
features issued on August 17, 2006. All banknotes in the denomination of Rs.20
issued by the Bank in the past will continue to be legal tender. P.
