New Delhi: In a bold move to combat the rupee’s freefall, the Indian government today announced a revolutionary solution: “If your currency is worthless, just pretend it doesn’t exist!” The Finance Ministry unveiled its “Digital Atyachaar” plan, urging citizens to exclusively use UPI for all transactions, including buying paan, bribing traffic cops, and even tipping street performers who sing Besharam Rang off-key.
“Why worry about exchange rates when you can just scan a QR code?” said
a government spokesperson, while paying his child’s school fees in 17 split payments of ₹10 each. “The rupee may sink faster than Kangana’s acting career, but thanks to UPI, you can still buy onions. Aadhaar card not required, but tears optional.”
