Even as the nation still reels from a cash crunch post-demonetisation, a small temple in Tamil Nadu’s Coimbatore district was seen decorating its goddess deity with new Rs 2,000 notes as a sign of celebrating the New Year.
At least Rs 5 lakh worth Rs. 2,000 notes were used to decorate Goddess Makali Amman.
Devotees thronged the temple in large numbers and offered prayers to the goddess.
The temple priest, Krishnamoorthy, said the goddess was adorned with new currency notes as a prayer for the country to never have to face a scarcity of cash again.
“This year, there is a huge shortage of bank notes but still we have decorated the temple. And, the purpose of doing so is to pray to god that this type of cash shortage never happens again,” said Krishnamoorthy.
