Assam BJP MLA claims 95 per cent of illegal Bangladeshi Muslims name appeared in NRC
Guwahati: While only three days left for the publication of the final National Register of Citizens (NRC), Assam BJP MLA Dilip Kumar Paul claimed that, lakhs of illegal Bangladeshi Muslims name have been included in the list.
Dilip Kumar Paul, who represents Silchar assembly constituency, said that around 95-96 per cent of illegal Bangladeshi Muslims name have appeared in the list.
“On the other hand, a major portion of Hindus name has been excluded from the list. We can never accept this NRC where illegal Bangladeshi Muslims name appeared,” Dilip Kumar Paul said.
The BJP MLA further said that, Hindus can never be foreigners in India.
The final NRC will be published on August 31.
“Around Rs 1300 crore have been utilised in the entire process and we want an error-free, foreigners free NRC. But it looks like as ‘dug up a mountain, out came a mouse’. 95-96 per cent illegal Bangladeshi Muslims name have been appeared in the list. Our BJP’s stand is that, Hindus can never be foreigners. We guess that, many Hindus name are out of the list. Those who are foreigners became Indian and those who are Indian became foreigners. We will not accept it,” Dilip Kumar Paul said.
He further said that, Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself said that Hindus cannot be foreigners in India.
“I am also a son of refugee. My father came here in 1950. Why he came here? I knew it,” Dilip Kumar Paul said.
