<h1>RBI Withdraws Pre-2005 Currency Notes to Boost Security; Exchange Available at Banks After March 31, 2014.</h1> The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) announced the withdrawal of all currency notes printed before 2005 to enhance security and prevent counterfeiting. These notes, lacking modern security features, will remain valid for transactions until March 31, 2014. Post this date, they can be exchanged at bank branches, with ongoing exchange facilities available. From July 1, 2014, account holders can exchange any quantity of old notes, while non-customers must provide identification for exchanging more than ten Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000 notes. The notes will remain legal tender indefinitely, with no specified end date for the exchange process.
