When $\mathrm{k}$ is pressed at $t=0,$ the capacitor will start charging through resistor in between $A$ and $B$ and no current will flow through resistor on the right.

Thus, at $t=0$ the current, $I=\frac{2}{1000}=2 m A$

After long time the charging will stop and current will flow through both resistors.

now current is $I=\frac{2}{1000+1000}=1 \mathrm{m} \mathrm{A}$
