Truth vs Hype: Note Ban's 1% Success Rate?

from Truth vs Hype Hosted by Sreenivasan Jain

In response, the government has moved the goalposts, and come out with a deluge of data to show that notes ban has been a success -- from reducing terrorism, to a greater formalisation of the Indian economy. We sift through the numbers to test if these new claims are truth or hype.
