Lord Ganesha, Goddess Lakshmi On Currency Notes: Kejriwal's Solution To Improve Economy

Country will prosper if Lakshmi, Ganesh on currency notes, says Kejriwal. He cited the example of Indonesia, a Muslim nation, that has a picture of Ganesha on its currency note.

Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to consider his suggestion of including images of Lord Ganesha and Goddess Lakshmi on currency notes in India to “improve the economic situation of the country”.

“Today I appeal to the central government and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. On Indian currency there is a photo of Gandhi ji, let that be, on the other side of currency, a photo of Shri Ganesh Ji and Lakshmi ji should be put,” he said.

“As I said, we have to make a lot of effort to improve the economic situation of our country. But also with that, we need blessings from Gods and Goddesses. The whole country will get blessings if on currency notes, there is a photo of Ganesh Ji and Lakshmi ji on one side and Gandhi ji on the other side,” he added.
