The sky above the printing press in Nagpur turned grey from the smoke of the steam engines, attracting the attention of the soldiers guarding it. Thankfully, it did not raise any suspicion, as the soldiers were not surprised for long.
For them, although the situation was rare, it was not like they had never seen it before. Monetary press, apart from the currency of the empire, also printed the bond paper used in legal documents. Millions of these bond papers were needed every month, so the soldiers simply thought that the bond papers were being printed and didn't think much of it, but unknown to them, the production of the bond paper had been shifted to a different monetary press, while hundreds of thousands of varaha were printed every day in the one they were guarding.
From the government's end, the Ministry of External Affairs requested that foreign countries to trade with the Bharatiya Empire using varaha instead of precious metals or barter.
