RBI has clarified that this is a claim is fake, and as per RBI, both the kind of Rs 500 notes are genuine and valid.

एक मैसेज में यह दावा किया जा रहा है कि ₹500 का वह नोट नकली है जिसमें हरी पट्टी आरबीआई गवर्नर के सिग्नेचर के पास ना होकर गांधीजी की तस्वीर के पास होती है।#PIBFactCheck

यह दावा #फ़र्ज़ी है।
@RBI के अनुसार दोनों ही तरह के नोट मान्य होते हैं।
