Sonowal flays Mamata�s NRC comments

By The Assam Tribune

NEW DELHI, Aug 5 - Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal said today that his West Bengal counterpart Mamata Banerjee�s �inflammatory� comment on NRC does not behove of a senior politician and asserted that his government was committed to complete the exercise as per the Supreme Court order.

Sonowal said precious time of Parliament were wasted by stalling its proceedings by Banerjee�s party, the Trinamool Congress, by spreading �false propaganda� and �wrong information� on National Register of Citizens (NRC), a list of Assam�s citizens.

�Not a single law and order situation has arisen in Assam after the the publication of the draft NRC, which was complete fair and transparent.�

�The statements of the West Bengal Chief Minister were inflammatory and divisive and aimed at her vote bank in her own state. It does not behove of a Chief Minister,� he told PTI in a telephonic interview from Guwahati.
