Filthy note
Zabed Wali, Pahartoli, Chittagong
We, the common people, have to suffer a lot because of the worn-out two taka notes. Though the government introduced coins of the same value, many of these coins, according to some of the observers, have ended up in the banks. That is , these coins are now in the possession of the collectors, or hoarders as they should be called, who have an inclination to garner these metallic objects. As a result, there is a scarcity of the said coins in the market.Because there is a dearth of coins, we have to use the dirty, grimy, torn two-taka notes. Even sometimes these paper notes are hard to come by. That these filthy notes often give rise to altercations in public buses and other modes of transport is a common fact of our lives. Moreover, these instances of verbal exchange often give occasion to swearing, and even fist fights. Thus these torn and worn-out notes are adding to our miseries. We hope that the authorities will look into the matter and introduce new paper notes of the said value.
