Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said on Friday said that secure printing of the new currency notes is a time-consuming exercise. “If you need to replace 86 percent of a country’s cash currency, you have to have a substantial part ready”, he said while addressing the inaugural session of HT Leadership Summit 2016. Jaitley defended the case of demonetisation by linking it to the cause of a digital economy.
