“Image of Lord Ram has been printed on India’s new five hundred rupee note”
What FACTLY found
There are no pictures of Lord Ram printed on India’s new 500-rupee notes. If there were new 500-rupee notes with the picture of Lord Ram on it, the Reserve Bank of India would have notified it on the website. There were no such press releases in the RBI website. The latest 500-rupee note printed was the Mahatma Gandhi (New) Series (MGNS) which was introduced way back in 2016
