West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Sunday attacked the central government over the contentious NRC issue. In a series of tweets, the Bengal CM alleged that the combine of BJP-RSS was creating and spreading misleading statements against the Supreme Court and that the court never asked to delete names of Indian citizens from NRC list.
“The list of Indian citizens left out comprise Bengalis, Assamese, Rajasthanis, Marwaris, Biharis, Gorkhas, UPites, Punjabis, and citizens from the 4 southern States. That is not all,” Mamata added. She further said that even names of soldiers, former President’s family members, elected representatives, prominent members of civil society also found their names missing from the draft list.
