Split proposal[edit]

This article seems extremely messy for an important topic. Would it make sense to split it into two:

NRC of India, an article on the concept of NRC, along with its legal foundations and questions, and
NRC for Assam, an article on the process by which it is being implemented for Assam.

Pinging Vanamonde93, Winged Blades of Godric, DBigXray. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 07:59, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To be honest, I think it's messy because it has wildly excessive technical detail that can simply be dumped. I'm not sure a split is necessary at this time; if, however, the situation in Assam continues to get widespread coverage, then a split might be necessary for reasons of due weight.

Concur. Leave this to me; I am quite good at culling stuff .... ∯WBG^converse 16:14, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

NRC controversies section proposal[edit]

This article misses to capture one of the core aspect that has led to the historic protest, which is the criticism on half a century old documentation on the disenfranchised and the NRC list published which had army veterans, son of freedom fighter, ex-Chief Minister, deaths in detention camps, missing genuine Indian citizens over document inaccuracies etc. Need editors help to compile on that section.

Clean-up effort[edit]

Winged Blades of Godric, thanks for taking on the task of cleaning up this page. Probably the best source for the pre-1983 history is the Myron Weiner paper that I added to the Bibliography yesterday. It is miles above anything else you can find. Cheers, Kautilya3 (talk) 09:02, 19 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Kautilya3, have read that and I am planning since a long time to work on Assam Movement and this page. By the way, have you read Assam, The Accord, The Discord? ∯WBG^converse 11:31, 19 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No, I hadn't heard of it before. Found an excerpt on Scroll and it looks excellent. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 12:22, 19 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Composition of the NRC-excluded population[edit]

Winged Blades of Godric, I am not entirely confident of this edit. The source is a bit clobbered, and so were other sources. Please look out for any other source supporting it or contradicting it. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 00:11, 21 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Provoking the persons[edit]

Many people are protesting at shaheen baag .. They didn't actually know anything about NRC. Agni koul (talk) 16:53, 29 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
