CorrectNot quiteAnswer C
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The Reserve Bank issues every currency note except one.
The one-rupee note is issued by the Ministry of Finance and carries the signature of the Finance Secretary, not the Governor.
Coins are likewise issued by the Government of India, under the Coinage Act.
Worth noting
A quick test of the answer: look at whose signature is on the note. Every other denomination carries the RBI Governor's.
