Assam's draft National Register of Citizens: Check your name through SMS, online on nrcassam.nic.in, toll-free number

The final draft of Assam's National Register of Citizens (NRC) was released on Monday in which out of a total of 3.29 crore people, names of 2,89,83,677 (two crore eighty nine lakh, eighty three thousand six hundred and seventy seven) people have been included. Over 40 lakh residents have been found eligible to be included in the National Register of Citizens.

The people who are not included can make claims and objections," the state NRC Coordinator said on Monday.
