India looks at the US to check fake currency notes

New Delhi: India is planning to seek technological cooperation of the US to check the flow of fake Indian currency notes the way Washington does to put a stop of circulation of counterfeit USD.

Impressed by the American technology, which has a database of each counterfeit US dollar - photograph, from where it originated, its route of travel and people behind its circulation - India is all set to ask the US to help it curb the menace, mostly originating from Pakistan.

A formal request is expected to be placed during the Indo-US Strategic Dialogue to be held in Washington later in June. Union Home Secretary RK Singh, besides others, will also attend the crucial meeting.

New Delhi will seek American technology to check the smuggling and circulation of fake Indian currency notes and build its own database of such counterfeit notes.

The move came after Home Minister P Chidambaram vowed to stamp down heavily on those who carry fake Indian currency note and indulge in smuggling of drugs from across the border.

"As far as FICN is concerned, we are worried about it and we will spare nobody who carries FICN. We will stamp down heavily on those who circulate FICN and we will punish the traffickers very severely," he had said last month.

drugs in cement, fake currency! pagal logo ka kafir mey ithnaa pyyar hey kya?

why these pakis use their brain on negative,illegal or destruction.cant they use on positive thing???

If they used their brain they would become a country like japan... but they chose to be "Pakistan".

destruction of kafir and conversion of dar-ul-harb into dar-ul-islam is religious duty of every muslim.

You dont even need to be sarcastic there...

This attitude of people like you, is the main reason for Muslims suffering and decline around the world

No wonder there is widespread Islamophobia.... your definition of Islam gives enough ammunition for daily drone attacks.

Inshah-Allah

If I had the wherewithal, I'd be my duty to make sure people who believe in what you have written are forced to mind their own business. It is this sense of this 'duty' to set everyone on the 'correct' path that leads to so much violence.

Every religion has this concept of us and them, the right and wrong, the good and bad, and either your are one of us, or a pagan, a kafir, a smlechha, and what not.

Has it been shown that the Government of Pakistan produces the counterfeit currency?

WHy hasn't India switched to polymer plastic technology till now.

Even Bangladesh has plastic polymer currency at present that is much better at resisting counterfeits than paper currency
