Congress district president who was accompanied by Ajit Singh, former minister, Rajdeep Goala, MLA Lakhipur, Partha Ranjan Chakraborty, spokesperson of the party, Sujan Dutta, Sanjeev Roy and others, said all want a free, fair and error free NRC, and not harassment for no fault of any individual. Ajit Singh and Rajdeep Goala raised the assurance given by Prateek Hajela, NRC state coorditor, to the effect that no body from this valley would have to go outside for verification. Video conferencing for all individuals served with such notices would be arranged within their own district. The Deputy Commissioner was made to understand that this assurance has turned out to be a hoax.
