On Friday, social media users extensively shared a picture of a fake Rs75 Pakistani currency note and said the SBP was going to issue it on its 75th Independence Day on August 14, 2022.
Here are some of the tweets shared by the social media users showing design of the new currency note:

Dear SBP concerns,
If it is final shape of the rupees 75 then there is a misprinting on the backside of the note in Roman figures written 57 instead of 75.
If it is a demo then OK😊 pic.twitter.com/g8ayqHpKsz— Zahoor Junejo (@Zahoorjunejo) June 24, 2022

Rupees 75:
But there must be a bit change in the note; just a suggestion, we must put Army's logo along with the slogan of 75 Years of slavery. Also in the corner we can add American flag too and plz cover the eyes of our Qauid.@OfficialDGISPR @GovtofPakistan pic.twitter.com/xZrEgLupNf— P for Pandora (@DLastPandorian) June 24, 2022
