He told the Rajya Sabha to a a supplementary question by Samajwadi Party member Javed Ali Khan on whether the National Register of Citizens or NRC will be implemented in other states: "The NRC which is currently implemented in Assam is part of the Assam Award. This is also part of the declaration based on which our government has been chosen."
