Is it true that the new Rs. 2000 currency notes in India will have a nano GPS chip?

No, it is not true that the new Rs. 2000 currency notes in India contain a nano GPS chip. This claim has been repeatedly debunked by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and other credible sources. The RBI has clarified that the new notes do not have any GPS tracking technology, and such claims are baseless and part of misinformation circulating on social media platforms124. The features of the Rs. 2000 note include security elements like latent images, colored strip security threads, and watermarks, but no GPS chip3.
