Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar said that the 'Grand Alliance' of his Janata Dal (United) with one-time rival Rashtriya Janata Dal and Congress will remain all five years of the term. "There is no question of joining the BJP. My support for demonetisation should not be interpreted politically," he said, speaking at the 2016 Hindustan Times Leadership Summit.

Sachin Tendulkar came out in support of the BCCI stating that the parent body has "done a lot for the game in the country".
Notwithstanding economists' prediction that demonetisation would hit the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth, Union Minister Piyush Goyal said when informal economy goes into the formal mode with the banning of high-value currency, this will add to the GDP.
