NRC in Assam: More Hindus than Muslims forged documents to get names listed, say sources

Firstpost  

With the hugely contentious NRC exposing communal faultlines in Assam, it has emerged that more Hindus than Muslims forged documents to find their way into the National Register of Citizens. Guwahati: With the hugely contentious NRC exposing communal faultlines in Assam, it has emerged that more Hindus than Muslims forged documents to find their way into the National Register of Citizens, sources with close knowledge of the exercise said on Sunday. Assam’s BJP government had recently claimed that more Hindus than Muslims were excluded from the draft NRC, and placed in the state assembly a district-wise list of exclusions, ignoring an apex court directive of secrecy. When reached for comments, a senior RSS Assam region functionary and its ‘Bouddhik Prachar Pramukh’ Shankar Das said the updated NRC will be “wrong” and that it will be challenged.
