1 and 5 Rupees Specimen Note portraying Mahatma Gandhi:
\n<\/u><\/strong>After India\u2019s independence in 1947, there was a need for a monetary reform on the Indian banknotes.

However, this design of New Indian Currency Notes was not approved and hence never released. Later the one-rupee note<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0was issued with the Ashokan Pillar emblem in place of Gandhi\u2019s picture.<\/p>\n
