Seemandhra and Telangana regions recorded more than 70 per cent voting in municipal elections held on Sunday. However, that's not what made news. The elections were in the spotlight after voters of several areas in Krishna and Anantapur districts took to the streets against the Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes allegedly distributed to them by political leaders, for being fake or belonging to the pre-2005 series that is set to be phased out by the RBI.

Angry residents also let it be known that each of them made Rs 2,500 per vote, but that it was Jaganmohan Reddy's YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) that saddled them with the fake or unwanted currency.
