Lakhs of people are likely to be left out of the final Assam NRC list
At 10 am today, the final Assam citizens' list will be published online, over a year after the first list that identifies whether a person is an Indian or a foreigner was released. The National Register of Citizens (NRC), first published in Assam in 1951, is being updated as per directions of the Supreme Court to segregate Indian citizens living in Assam from those who have illegally entered the state from Bangladesh after March 25, 1971.
The NRC Updation Assam, which is the official page of the Office of the State Coordinator of National Registration (NRC), Assam, has released a document on how one can check their name in the final NRC list.
