Guwahati, Sep 2 (TIWN) Seventy three-year old Manoranjan Seal is worried as his family has been left out of the final National Register of Citizens (NRC) list.

The BJP's Assam unit is increasingly worried over speculation that a large number of illegal foreigners' names are included in the final NRC list, while the Hindus have been excluded.  Several BJP leaders are now speaking publicly against the NRC and said that the government will do anything for the genuine Indians.  Unhappy over the final list of the NRC, Assam state BJP president Ranjeet Kumar Dass said that the BJP is now demanding nationwide NRC.  "We have seen that a large number of Indian citizens name have not been listed in this NRC list. Among these, many are coming from Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, West Bengal, Tripura and they have valid documents. But their names have not been listed. They have applied on several occasions, but their names are missing. NRC is a national phenomenon, but it has been started from Assam. So, the Assam state BJP has demanded to implement it in the entire nation in the interest of the Hindustan [India]," Ranjeet Kumar Dass said.
