Government decides to print plastic currency note

Accha hai agli baar kabadi wala khareed toh lega, nadi-nahar mein daalne waale khush honge

@@@mr.lonely@@ contrary to common perception, plastic currency (in a country like ours) might be more environmentally friendly than paper because it has more shelf life.
The expectation is that less of it will need to be replaced as frequentally as viscose or pulp based product. (but we also know that Indians bewafa hein and do a lot to damage even currency)

@desidude2013 just between you and me, this idea is more stale than the leftover bread in my fridge.
it IS a good idea though. (and so is the bread. i feel hungry now )

since Australia been doing it for more than a quarter of a century and later Singapore too had part success with it, even RBI had mulled over it towards the start of 21st century.

This BBC teaser makes for a good read ⇒ http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-15...23

Last time when Indian currency was contract manufactured (outsourced),

This time it will be the Swiss, Germans and others.
