A Reddit user shared that their mother stumbled upon a hidden stash of ₹2 lakh in ₹2,000 notes while cleaning an old DTH set-top box during Diwali cleaning. "Probably kept there by my desi dad...We haven't told him yet...Please suggest how to proceed further," the post read. The ₹2,000 note was officially withdrawn from circulation by RBI in 2023.
