NRC fundamentally wrong… new one after polls if SC allows: Himanta -Abhishek Saha

-The Indian Express

The state government has appealed to the Supreme Court for a re-verification of the names included in the NRC — 20 per cent of included names in border districts and 10 per cent elsewhere.

Guwahati: Ahead of elections in Assam early next year, senior minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Thursday told the media that the National Register of Citizens (NRC) published in August last year is “fundamentally wrong” and a new exercise will start after the elections if the Supreme Court allows.

Sarma also said that “modern Mughals” — without defining the term — had entered every aspect of life in Assam and a long political fight was needed to stop them. “The fight to remove the ‘adhunik’ (modern) Mughal from Assam will be long… if we can fight them for another five years, it will be enough to defeat them,” he said, adding that “delimitation and NRC” were essential for the fight.

Sarma reiterated the allegation that the former NRC State Coordinator Prateek Hajela, who was transferred to Madhya Pradesh last year by the Supreme Court after his relationship with the state government deteriorated — was instrumental in preparing a “fundamentally wrong NRC”.
