The Reserve Bank of India will shortly issue `20/- denomination Banknotes with inset letter "F" in both numbering panels in Mahatma Gandhi Series 2005 bearing the signature of Dr. D. Subbarao, Governor, Reserve Bank of India. Except for the change in the inset letter, the design of these notes to be issued now is similar in all respects to the Banknotes in Mahatma Gandhi Series 2005 with additional security features. All Banknotes in the denomination of `20/- issued by the Reserve Bank of India in the past will continue to be legal tender.
