19 Lakh Face Uncertain Future As Assam Citizens' List Hits 'Deep Freeze' | Read
Manju Debnath, a migrant and a Bengali Hindu from Nagaon is among the 19 lakh people excluded from the National Register of Citizens (NRC) in Assam. Close to six months after the list was published, the 60-year-old is still anxiously waiting for the notification of the final list. "Earlier I was tensed as to what's next but then I left it to my fate. I am not the only one. In Assam, lakhs have been excluded under the NRC. But now the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA) gives us a hope to get citizenship," Ms Debnath tells NDTV.
