Members participating in the discussion expressed their serious resentment at the contradictory and confusing statements. This has created a serious setback to the movement of democratic organizations against the NRC updation, the process and procedure being followed has been most complex and complicated.
Haridas Dutta has cautioned if this process for updation continues, it will push lakhs of citizens of the state to a state of total uncertainty. They might even lose citizenship and become stateless. The statements by the political leaders of different parties have been described as baseless and far from reality. He has called upon people of all classes to become vocal against these statements and participate in the movement launched by NSSC.
