Assam News | "Waiting For Muhurat?" Supreme Court Asks Assam To Deport 63 People
Supreme Court On Assam: Coming down heavily on the Assam government for not deporting people declared as foreigners, the Supreme Court today asked if it was waiting for some "muhurat" (auspicious time). The bench of Justice Abhay S Oka and Justice Ujjal Bhuyan asked the Assam government to deport 63 people currently in the detention centres after they were declared foreigners during the exercise to update a National Register of Citizens (NRC) in the border state. The state argued that it did not know to address of the foreigners in their country of origin, but the court was not convinced.
