Delhi chief minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday wrote a letter to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) seeking details on the current situation.
"How much currency needed? How much printed? What is capacity? How many more days will it take?" Kejriwal wrote in the letter which he has also posted on twitter.

"Take back this decision in three days... Don't test people's patience. Otherwise, there will be a revolt by people," Kejriwal said.
"Prime Minister Modi has broken constitutional rules...Why did not you make a proper plan before the implementation? The common man is suffering due to it. We are giving you three days. If you do not fix all problems, we will not leave you. We are still alive," Mamata said.

For the second consecutive day the issue dominated the proceedings in both houses of the parliament.
Both Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha were adjourned on Thursday as opposition raised slogans against the government on the notes ban.
In the Rajya Sabha, where the government does not have a majority they demanded that Prime Minister Narendra Modi respond to questions they have raised in a debate on the issue.
