Error-free NRC in Sonowal speech
We sought re-verification only to ensure an error free NRC. The state government is committed towards protection of all genuine Indian citizens residing in the state," he said. The Centre and the state government had filed a petition by seeking sample re-verification of 20 per cent of applicants from areas bordering Bangladesh and 10 per cent elsewhere in the state. But the request was turned down by the Supreme Court on August 13. The final NRC will be published on August 31, the deadline set by the apex court. The government plea was based on district wise data that showed exclusion was just 7.7 per cent in the border areas and 12.7 per cent in other areas, fuelling apprehension that illegal migrants could have got themselves enrolled in the NRC being updated only in Assam. NRC state coordinator Prateek Hajela had told the Supreme Court on July 23 that re-verification was not necessary. In the 30-minute speech, the chief minister said the 73rd Independence day is special for the entire nation as it comes at a time when long standing dream of Jammu and Kashmir's complete amalgamation with the country. He also thanked the Prime Minister and Union home minister for such a historic decision. "We are on the path to secure a constitutional safeguard for our people. To implement Clause 6 of Assam accord, which promised constitutional, legal and legislative safeguards to indigenous Assamese, the formation of the high-level committee is another great step taken by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Without hurting the rights of other indigenous communities of Assam the central government has taken steps to provide ST status to six communities - Tai Ahom, Moran, Matak, Chutia, Koch Rajbongshi and the tea tribes," Sonowal added. The venue witnessed a healthy turnout. A floral shower by helicopters at the beginning of the programme was followed by the ceremonial salute of the marchpast. The chief minister fondly remembered the freedom fighters of the state who had laid down their lives for their motherland.
