Will the ₹500 note be banned? Indian government clarifies as reports emerge over ‘demonitisation' 2026 claims
The Government of India, in its social media fact-checking handle on platform X, clarified that the claims about an upcoming alleged 'demonetisation' in March 2026 were false and that they were an attempt to spread misinformation among the masses through social media platforms. According to the official PIBFactCheck post released on Tuesday, 3 June 2025, a video went viral on social media in which a news anchor from the YouTube channel 'Capital TV' claimed that India is set to discontinue the circulation of ₹ 500 banknotes effective March 2026. 'A #YouTube video on the YT Channel 'CAPITAL TV' (capitaltvind) falsely claims that the RBI will discontinue the circulation of ₹ 500 notes by March 2026,' according to the PIBFactCheck announcement post on platform X. Calling out this social media claim, the Indian government issued an official 'Fact Check' in which they said that the nation's central bank, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), has made no such announcements about any potential or upcoming demonetisation move. The government also assured the people of the nation that the ₹ 500 banknotes 'have not been discontinued' and continue to serve as a 'legal tender' form of the official Indian currency. The government also warned people to stay alert to 'fake news' and videos circulated on social media platforms and not to believe anything unless it comes from official sources like the RBI. 'Don't fall for such misinformation. Always verify news from official sources before believing or sharing it!' said the Indian government, warning people against similar misinformation circulating on social media platforms. In May 2025, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) announced that it would soon release new ₹ 20 banknotes with Governor Sanjay Malhotra's signature on them. 'The Reserve Bank of India will shortly issue ₹ 20 denomination Banknotes in Mahatma Gandhi (New) Series bearing the signature of Shri Sanjay Malhotra, Governor. The design of these notes is similar in all respects to ₹ 20 banknotes in Mahatma Gandhi (New) Series,' said the RBI. RBI also disclosed that the ₹ 20 notes will be similar in all other aspects, including design, to the new series of notes circulating in the nation, except for the new governor's signature.

Claim Of IAF Jet Shot Down And Pilot Killed Is Fake, Says PIB Fact Check
Agency: Last Updated: The PIB Fact Check unit has termed the claim fake and far from the truth, clarifying that the pilot in question is safe, on duty, and actively deployed. The Central government on Thursday categorically denied a viral social media post claiming that a MiG-29 UPG fighter jet of the Indian Air Force (IAF) was shot down and its pilot killed on May 7. The PIB Fact Check unit has termed the claim fake and far from the truth, clarifying that the pilot in question is safe, on duty, and actively deployed. 'A post circulating on social media claims that an Indian Air Force jet MiG-29 UPG has been shot down, and the IAF pilot has died. This claim is fake. The @IAF_MCC pilot is safe, on duty, and currently deployed," the official PIB Fact Check handle said in a post on X. The fabricated post appears to be linked to Operation Sindoor, a counter-terror operation launched in response to the terror attack in Jammu & Kashmir's Pahalgam, which left 26 civilians dead. The fake message, which is being widely circulated, claims that on May 7, a MiG-29 UPG was shot down by a Pakistan Air Force JF-17C over Ramban in Jammu & Kashmir, resulting in the death of Squadron Leader Keshav Yadav. The misleading post reads: 'On 7 May 2025, #IndianAir Force (#IAF) MiG-29 UPG shot down by a #PakistanAirForce JF-17C using a PL-15 LRAAM over Ramban, Jammu & Kashmir, was being piloted by Sqn. Ldr. Keshav Yadav (IAF No. 32394), who sustained injuries and died on 22 May 2025 at Udhampur Military Hospital, Jammu & Kashmir. #IndiaPakistanWar #IndiaPakistanWar2025 #JF17 #MIG29" Dismissing the claim outright, the government emphasised that no such incident took place on May 7 or at any other time. 'The claim is entirely fabricated. No IAF aircraft has been shot down, and the pilot mentioned is alive and on active duty," the PIB Fact Check post clarified. Officials have urged the public to refrain from sharing unverified information and warned that spreading fake news, especially on matters of national security, can have serious consequences.
