BJP MP Nishikant Dubey 

 

New Delhi: A BJP MP from Jharkhand on Thursday requested the government to bring the National Register of Citizens (NRC) in Jharkhand, West Bengal and a particular area of Bihar to get rid of Bangladeshi infiltrators.

Speaking during the Zero Hour, Nishikant Dubey (BJP) said the people of the area from where he hailed were troubled by Bangladeshi intruders.

"When we (BJP) had our government in Jharkhand, our chief minister had demanded NRC for a particular district and had asked Centre for NRC to be implemented there.

According to BJP, NRC in Jharkhand will protect the rights of minorities of the country which have been "taken away" by Bangladeshi infiltrators.

"I request Government of India that in Jharkhand... and in an area of Bihar and in Bengal, NRC should be brought and this is how we get rid of Bangaladeshi intruders," he said.

Earlier in March 2020, the Jharkhand Assembly had passed a resolution against the National Register of Citizens and said that the National Population Register exercise should be carried out using the 2010 format.

The resolution was moved by state Parliamentary Affairs Minister Alamgir Alam and passed by the House without discussion amid protests by Bharatiya Janata Party members.
