Kalimpong:
Seeking to allay fears created among the people of the hills by TMC's "lies", Union Home Minister Amit Shah asserted today that the National Register of Citizens (NRC) will have no impact on the Gorkhas.
Mr Shah, during an address after a roadshow in Kalimpong, said as long as the Narendra Modi-led BJP government is there at the centre, no Gorkha will be harmed.
"NRC has not yet been implemented, but whenever it is done, not a single Gorkha will be asked to leave," the senior BJP leader said.
