New Delhi, Nov 22 (IBNS): Amid a joint opposition by rival forces, Prime Minisiter Narendra Modi met his own BJP party MPs on Tuesday morning to discuss the situation arising out of the currency ban to curb black money flow in the economy.

BJP lawmakers supported Modi on this decision to demonetize 500 and 1,000-rupee notes.

Earlier, hitting out the BJP-led NDA government in Centre over demonetisation issue, West Bengal Chief Minister and Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo Mamata Banerjee on Monday announced to hold rallies in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Punjab against Narendra Modi's decision of scrapping 500/1000 rupees notes.
