The correct answer is (d). The Government of India has recently decided to re-start the printing of Rs. 1, Rs. 2, and Rs. 5 currency notes after a gap of 20 years. The decision was taken in view of the increasing demand for these notes from the public. The new notes will be printed on high-quality paper and will have enhanced security features. They will also be smaller in size than the old notes. The printing of the new notes is expected to

start in the next few months.
The printing of Rs. 1, Rs. 2, and Rs. 5 currency notes was stopped in 2000 in view of the introduction of the new Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000 notes. However, the demand for these notes continued to rise from the public. This was mainly due to the fact that these notes are used for day-to-day transactions and are also used by a large number of people in rural areas.
The decision to re-start the printing of these notes is a welcome move. It will help to meet the growing demand for these notes and will also make it easier for people to carry out day-to-day transactions. The new notes will be more secure and will also be smaller in size, which will make them more convenient to carry.
