AAP's Delhi unit Convenor Dilip Pandey said the Centre's demonetisation decision has driven the nation to an "economic slowdown." "Developed nations have stayed away from the decision of demonetisation, but Prime Minister Narendra Modi has driven the world's largest economy into a mess," he said.

In a surprise move, the Modi government had on November 8 decided to demonetise Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes. Many political parties, including Congress, AAP, Left, TMC, SP, BSP etc have come out against the move.
