Guwahati: Rajen Medhi and his team kept their National Register of Citizens (NRC) seva kendra - NSK 15, Dispur - open on Sunday to get everything ready for the publication of the complete draft NRC on Monday morning.

"We have set everything ready on Sunday so that people, by using their application receipt number (ARN), can check their names, hassle-free, on Monday morning. We have also set up a sub-centre at Nabanagar Lower Primary School, a few minutes' drive from here, to reduce the crowd here," Medhi, the local register of citizen registration (LPCR), the head of the NSK, said.

The complete draft will be published at 10am in Assamese, English, Bodo and Bengali languages on Monday.

"It has been kept in sealed covers at the circle office. It will be delivered to our office between 7.30am and 8am. For our centre, the draft will be in around 2,400 pages in A4 size paper," assistant LPCR Ranjan Sarma said. Sharma said their NSK has 27 people.

Unlike the first draft, which had only the names of the applicants, the complete draft will contain pictures and the address of the applicants.

NSK 15, Dispur, is one of the 2,500 NSKs across Assam, which will be releasing the complete draft NRC to let people know their citizenship status. During the past three years these NSKs, equipped with LRCR and data entry operators, collected forms from people, verified them and entered names of the genuine Indian citizens for the two drafts of the NRC. The first draft was published on December 31, 2017.

Located at the heart of the city NSK 15, Dispur, is perhaps one of the safest NSKs in the state. "We are not worried about security as the names of almost 90 per cent of the applicants were in the first draft. The local police station is also in constant touch with us," Sharma said.

He said people on Monday can only check whether their names are present in the NRC. "If someone's name is absent, he/she will know the reason for the omission from August 7," he said
