Rahul said “We want the Prime Minister to explain some things to the country. After November 8, how much black money has come out and how much economic loss has the country suffered due to demonetisation? How many people have lost their lives and whether any compensation has been paid to them?” He asked. “The PM should also say whom he consulted before carrying out the decision and give the names of experts consulted,” he added.
