Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will celebrate ‘Anti-Black Money Day’ on November 8 to mark the first anniversary of demonetisation, Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said on Wednesday.

On the evening of November 8, 2016, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in his address to the nation, scrapped 1,000 and old 500 rupee notes, in an attempt to tackle black money and corruption.

Jaitley said that all the prominent leaders, ministers, MPs and MLAs of BJP will hold a slew of programmes across the country and will highlight the achievements after demonetisation.

The opposition on Tuesday said that an amalgamation of 18 parties will ensure that the day is observed as a “black day” with protests and rallies in different states.
