"I am not saying old notes should be cancelled. Instead, this new step should be implemented in the new currency notes that will be published," he said.
He said this step is needed to get the almighty's blessings and hence settle the economic condition of the country.
He also mentioned the case of Indonesia where Lord Ganesh's image is printed on the 20,000 rupiah note.
