Sometimes i feel that small town of Bilaspur must be one of the most democratic places on Earth as well as one of the most advanced in our Country.
Recently RBI (Reserve Bank Of India) put the 25 paise coin out of circulation all over INDIA. But denominations above it are yet in use in the Country . However in my town of Bilaspur you cannot get a single shopkeeper or even a villager who will accept a 50 paise coin as currency. they look on it as a measly amount not fit for any monetary exchange . Irrespective of all RBI Regulations . The funny thing is that they are in complete knowledge of the fact that 50 paisa is well accepted even in Metropolitan cities of INDIA. But when you go to exchange your 50 paises against currency note in a local bank , they are not willing to take it stating that it is currency that is well in use.
I bet if any of you can get somebody to accept a single 50 paise in a financial exchange in Bilaspur . See the better side of the story.
Bilaspur passes the true test of Democracy. - MAJORITY WINS.
