‘19 lakh people, including 7 lakh Muslims, out of NRC’, says Assam CM
Guwahati: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has stated that 19 lakh people, including 7 lakh muslims, have been excluded from NRC in Guwahati on Sunday.
In an exclusive interview to ‘News Live’, the chief minister said that “5 lakh Bengali Hindus, 2 lakh other Hindus including Koch-rajbongshi, Kalita and Sarmas, and 1.5 lakh Gurkhas have been excluded from the Register”.
National Register of Citizens (NRC) has been brought into force to identify and deport illegal immigrants. The state of Assam has published NRC on August 31, 2019. Anyone left out, must claim that they or their ancestors entered the state before March 24, 1971 using proper documents. Once proved, their names are added to the Register.
19 lakh people among those who applied to be included in the National Register of Citizens have been excluded from the final list. The figures given by Hemant Biswa Sarma make up 15.5 lakhs. It is still unclear who the rest of 3.5 lakh people excluded are.

CBI registers fresh case against Reliance Communications, Anil Ambani
New Delhi (PTI): The CBI on Wednesday registered a fresh case against industrialist Anil Ambani and Reliance Communications Ltd for allegedly causing a loss of Rs 3,750 crore to Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) of India, officials said.
The CBI has filed the case for the alleged offences of conspiracy, cheating and misappropriation and under the provisions of the Prevention of Corruption Act on a complaint from the LIC, making it the fourth case against the company and Anil Ambani, they said.
The agency has alleged that LIC was fraudulently induced to subscribe to Non Convertible Debentures (NCDs) worth Rs. 4500 crore between 2009 and 2012 on the basis of false representations made by Reliance Communications Ltd. and its management regarding the financial health of the company, and security and asset cover offered to LIC while subscribing to the NCDs.
The insurer suffered a loss of over Rs 3,750 crore and ordered a forensic audit against the company.
The forensic audit report dated October 15, 2020, conducted by BDO India LLP, reported that RCOM and its management had resorted to misutilisation of funds raised from banks and financial institutions, routing of funds through subsidiaries, misuse of sale invoice financing, discounting of fictitious bills, systematic siphoning of funds through inter-company deposits/shell related entities, creating and write-off of fictitious debtors and receivables and gross overstatement of security.
It said there was a mismatch between the charges and the assets.
