The Banks should be brought back to normal working to cater the needs of regular customers, which have been impaired for the past 50 days & more. Interest for FDs & SB a/cs in respect of Senior citizens should be kept as usual as Elders live with interests from such amount. Elders keep liquid cash for their emergency situation that may arise and hence should not be taxed.All bank charges must be reduced so thatmore bank transactions are encouraged.For this GOI & RBI should for committee& review.

Since old conversion in banks ceases w.e.f. 30/12/2016, the RBI should supply adequate supply of RS.500/- new notes which are very much in scarcity in very many cities. Stop printing Rs.2000/- notes for the present and new 100/- notes needs to be printed with more safety features.Lower denominations and coins with less costly metals (combination of Bi metals) need to be produced and injected in to the circulation. Normalcy of currency circulation must be published in media to induce confidence.

All malls,cinemas,supermarkets,waterparks etc. should be compulsory cashless, through that discussion small wenders will accept cashless transactions to attract costumers.

One of the main impediments standing in the way of digital payments, even by those who are familiar with such mode of payments is security concern. I would suggest that an user of debit card should be allowed to authorise the amount that can be drawn through ATM with a top up facility through mobile phone using a PIN number. For eg, I may have a balance of 100000.00, but I can set up through my mobile an amount, say 15000, up to which I can use my debit card. This way I keeping the balance safe

It is very difficult for all the retail vendors to go cashless unless all the transactions (Sale/Purchase) will done with the bill. So govt. have to take suitable action in this direction and where possible, prohibit to take cash and strictly get payment only through cashless methods in govt. departments.
