This statistic shows the result from a survey conducted in 2016-17 among urban and rural households across 20 states in India about the perception of corruption during demonetization in public services during 2016. A majority of households at about 56 percent thought the corruption in public services had decreased.
On November 8, 2016, the government announced demonetization of all 500 and 1,000 Indian rupee banknotes attempting to crack down on illicit and counterfeit cash that was allegedly funding illegal activity and terrorism. This led to weeks of cash shortages, creating a significant disruption in the Indian economy.
