Assam will deport ‘foreigners’ even if their names feature in NRC: Himanta

Guwahati, 12/6: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has said that the state government’s current policy is to push back foreigners even if their names are found in the National Register of Citizens (NRC).

The way the NRC was carried out in Assam leaves a lot of scope for doubt, and it cannot be the only document for determining a person’s citizenship, Sarma said.
