Sources said that they said that since there is no scope for amendment, the state government, as well as the ruling BJP, has requested the Center to "dismiss" the present form of NRC. He said, "Assam government has not accepted NRC. Many ineligible people were included in this and many genuine Indian citizens have been excluded. The Assam government and the BJP have requested the Home Minister to reject this NRC, there is no scope for amendment in it. ”Sarma, however, clarified that no written information on the issue has been sent to the Center. Home Minister Shah has given a statement in the Rajya Sabha on Wednesday that the NRC process will be carried out across the country. Welcoming Shah's statement, Sarma said that the state government is happy that the Center has "listened to his heart" and that the exercise will begin after the passage of the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill. Sarma said that the state government has supported a national NRC for a specified year for the entire country. He said, "If the designated year is 1971, then it should be the same for all states. We are not asking for the cancellation of the Assam Accord."
