Talking to newsmen at Rajiv Bhawan in Guwahati on Saturday, Gogoi said: “We want the government to publish the fil NRC within six months after the publication of the draft NRC. The government has all along been saying that the NRC update work has been carried out in the State by the Supreme Court of India, which is factually not correct. Has the apex court updated the NRC itself, why should it have reprimanded the government for NRC delay? The fact remains that the government is updating the NRC and the Supreme Court is monitoring the updating process.”
