Action against persons designated by Foreigners’ Tribunals
District officials in Assam have begun work to delete the names of “declared foreigners’ whose names had been included in the complete draft of the updated National Register of Citizens (NRC) that was published on July 30. In Morigaon district, officials have identified some 200 people declared foreigners by various Foreigners’ Tribunals or are facing cases related to their doubtful citizenship. Assam has 100 such tribunals where people of suspect nationality are required to prove they are Indians.
