There was an acute shortage of five-rupee coins at most commercial bank branches in the city and even old established customers of commercial banks were not able to obtain the required number of five-rupee coins against exchange of five-rupee currency notes.
Despite repeated notices through print and electronic media that five-rupee currency notes will cease to be legal tender from July 1 and these currency notes should be exchanged with five-rupee coins from the commercial bank branches or State Bank of Pakistan, most of the commercial bank branches were facing shortage of five-rupee coins.
The people of five-rupee currency notes have urged the State Bank to look into the matter.
