Assam NRC final list 2019: The National Register of Citizen or NRC final citizens' list in Assam has been published at all NRC Seva Kendra (NSK) across Assam and on www.nrcassam.nic.in or www.assam.mygov.in online on August 31, 2019.
The Assam NRC list is intended to identify legal residents--who were able to prove their citizenship and weed out illegal immigrants from the state. Assam is the only state to have a National Register of Citizens (NRC).
The NRC list, first published in Assam in 1951, has been updated to segregate Indian citizens living in Assam from those who have illegally entered the state from Bangladesh after March 1971.
The draft NRC containing names of 28,983,677 out of 32,991,384 applicants was published on July 30 last year. As many as 40.7 lakh people were left out from the draft NRC. In the list published in June 2019, over one lakh more people were excluded. Around 36 lakh people have filed "claims" for the inclusion of their names in the final NRC
