A claim of the former chairperson of the State Bank of India (SBI) Arundhati Bhattacharya, on the 2016 demonetization is getting viral on social media.

In the viral post, a placard is seen with the SBI’s logo at the back with Bhattacharya’s picture in the front. Beneath this sentence is written in Hindi which when translated to English states, “There is no freedom of speech in Modi government.” Spoke Arundhati Bhattacharya after retirement, “demonetization was a fatal decision.”

A verified user by the name of kirti azad writes, “ Godi media does not report this or will they.”
