Congress brings adjournment motion in Lok Sabha to discuss the issue of Demonetisation tomorrow, ANI reported.

Party vice president Rahul Gandhi is expected to speak on the issue.

Several opposition parties were planning to bring the adjournment motion in the Lok Sabha to target the government on the issue.

Opposition leaders said the move is being planned to highlight the hardship caused to people including farmers, labourers and small traders due to demonetisation of high-value currency notes.
