Unlike the last demonetisation in 2016, this time Rs 2,000 notes remain legally valid. The official said that the branches are not overcrowded as of now and deposits are being accepted as per the extant guidelines.
RBI gave this advice to banks for those who came to exchange or deposit 2000 notes

Along with this, drinking water should also be arranged for the people in the queue. Banks have been asked to make note exchange facility available over the counter in the normal way. Apart from this, banks have been asked to keep the details of 2000 notes deposited and exchanged daily.
Banks were crowded during 2016 demonetisation
It is noteworthy that in 2016, when the demonetisation was announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, there were long queues in banks to exchange notes. Whereas, despite the announcement of withdrawal of Rs 2000 notes, there is no panic among the people. This is because it remains legal tender.
