The Enforcement Directorate (ED) and the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) have begun questioning individuals who were lined up at the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) in Bhubaneswar to Exchange Rs 2,000 notes. There are allegations that influential people may have employed others to exchange the discontinued notes on their behalf. The EOW is examining the identity documents of those in the queue and asking them about the source of the money. Many of the people in the queue were carrying exactly 10 pieces of Rs 2,000 notes and admitted to standing in line for a commission of Rs 200-300 for each note exchanged.
