Guwahati, May 13 : The Assam coordinator of the National Register of Citizens (NRC) has urged the Supreme Court for a "comprehensive and time-bound re-verification of the citizens list", highlighting "major irregularities" in the process, officials said on Thursday.
The officials said that Assam NRC coordinator Hitesh Dev Sarma in his interlocutory application also prayed for the deletion of illegal voters from Assam's electoral rolls besides the revision of the draft NRC and a supplementary list under a relevant clause of the Schedule of Citizenship (Registration of Citizens and Issue of National Identity Cards) Rules, 2003.
