Assam citizen’s list: 1 lakh more excluded ahead of July 31 deaadline

Published

NRC

Over one lakh more people have been excluded from the draft National Register of Citizens (NRC) released in Assam today (Wednesday, June 26). These 1, 02,462 people were in the draft citizens’ list published in July last year but have now been found ineligible for inclusion in citizens’ list.

The list published last year had the names of 40.07 lakh people who were excluded from the 3.29 crore applicants.

The NRC draft list released in July last year had the names of 40 lakh people missing. Now, the process of claims and objections is being executed by the authorities.

The NRC daft list is linked to Assam’s elaborate process of weeding out foreign nationals which started in 2014 to update the Assam citizens’ list for the first time after 1951 to account for illegal immigration into Assam from Bangladesh.

The complete list of NRC is due by July 31, 2019 as per a Supreme Court deadline.

“People found to be declared foreigners or doubtful (D) voters or with cases pending at Foreigners’ Tribunals discovered after publication of the draft NRC are in the additional list. So are their descendants, as applicable,” said media reports quoting a State government spokesperson.

The other categories of people in the additional list are those found to be ineligible while appearing as witnesses in hearings held for disposal of claims and objections, and during the process of verification carried out by the local registrars of citizens registration.

According to the office of the NRC Coordinator, the additional list was prepared under the provisions contained in Clause 5 of the Schedule of The Citizenship (Registration of Citizens and Issue of National Identity Cards) Rules, 2003.

“As per provisions contained in Clause 5 of the Schedule of Citizenship (Registration of Citizens and Issue of National Identity Card) Rules, 2003, an additional draft list consisting of 1,02,462 has been published today,” the office of the state coordinator of the NRC said in a statement.

Listing reasons for the exclusion, the statement notes three categories.

First, those who are declared foreigner, doubtful voter or persons with cases pending at Foreigners Tribunals or their descendants, as applicable, discovered after publication of draft NRC.

Second, persons who were found to be ineligible while appearing as witness in hearings held for disposal of claims and objections.

Third, are persons who were found to be ineligible during the process of verification carried out by the Local Registrars of Citizens Registration under provisions of Clause 4(3), after publication draft NRC on July 30, 2018.

A local registrar may at any time before the final publication of NRC may take up verification of such persons considered necessary.

Additionally, said media reports, the Supreme Court which is monitoring the process had ordered that declared foreigners and their descendants are to be kept out of NRC while doubtful voters and persons who have cases pending in foreigners tribunals are to be kept on hold till their cases are decided by the tribunals irrespective of them clearing the NRC verification processes.

In the statement, the state coordinator said, “The Additional Draft Exclusion List will not contain the results of claimants and objectees appearing for hearings held for disposal of Claims and Objections during the period 15th February 2019 to 26th June, 2019. The results of those hearings will be published only in the Final NRC to be published on 31st July 2019. Starting at 10am on 26th June, 2019, the hard copies of the Additional Draft Exclusion List will be available for public view at NRC SevaKendras (NSK), offices of the Deputy Commissioner/ SDO (Civil)/ Circle Officer during office hours.”

The “additional exclusion list” is available in designated NRC SevaKendras (NSKs) and the offices of the deputy commissioners, sub-divisional officers (civil) and circle officers. People can access the list online at nrcassam.nic.in.

Further, the NRC State Coordinator stated that those who will be excluded will also be informed individually through Letters of Information (LOI) to be delivered at their residential addresses along with the reason of exclusion and they will have the opportunity to file their Claims which will be disposed through a hearing by a Disposing Officer.

“The submission of Claim and its disposal by the Disposing Officer through a hearing will happen together. LOI will mention the details of the venue of claim submission cum hearing. The hearings will start from 5th July 2019 onwards. The date of hearings will also be available online in the NRC website www.nrcassam.nic.in from 29th June 2019 onwards. All such Claims will be disposed thereafter and results of such persons will be declared in the Final NRC on 31st July 2019,” he said.

The online list will highlight the names of ineligible people as “excluded in additional list” while the names of other citizens will remain the same. The list will not mention the results of the disposal of claims and objections.

“Each person in the additional list will have to be informed through a letter of information about the reasons for his/her inclusion in the additional list, details of the disposing officer before whom the claim has to be filed and hearing held, including the date, time and venue,” the letter said.

The submission of claim and its disposal through a hearing would take place together. The hearing would start from July 5. All such claims would be disposed of thereafter and the results would be declared in the final NRC, the officer said.

Earlier, the Home Ministry had said it has laid down the modalities for foreigners’ tribunals in Assam for deciding appeals made by people not satisfied with the outcome of claims and objections filed against the NRC.

Further, the President of India, Ram Nath Kovind, in his address to the joint sitting of both the Houses of Parliament, said efforts will be made to amend the Citizenship Act while protecting linguistic, cultural and social identities. “My government has decided to implement the process of National Register of Citizens on priority basis in areas affected by infiltration,” he said in his customary address after the formation of the 17th Lok Sabha.

The President, however, did not specify in which areas the NRC will be implemented.

The Kerala Public Examination Section has officially announced the Kerala CM Kids LSS and USS result 2026. The scorecard link is live for candidates who sat for the scholarship eligibility examinations conducted in February 2026.

However, shortly after the declaration, several students and parents encountered difficulties trying to log onto the main portal, bpekerala.in. Due to a massive surge in simultaneous traffic from eager candidates, the official website has experienced temporary server slowdowns, loading delays, and intermittent error screens. Media reports indicate that the portal might stay slow during peak hours, but authorities ensure that the result data is perfectly safe and live online.

Why the Kerala LSS USS result website is slow

Technical glitches right after a major result declaration are quite common due to infrastructural limitations during peak traffic. Some of the primary factors contributing to the current loading errors include:

  • High visitor traffic: Thousands of students trying to load the homepage simultaneously.
  • Server overload: Simultaneous database requests leading to temporary unresponsive servers.
  • Mobile compatibility limitations: Heavy traffic coupled with certain mobile browsers causing slow rendering times.

Step-by-step guide to download Kerala LSS USS result 2026

If you are experiencing slow loading speeds on the primary web server, you can carefully try the following steps to download your marksheet:

  • Step 1: Navigate to the official website at bpekerala.in and let the landing page load completely without interrupting.
  • Step 2: Find and click on the link labeled “CM Kids LSS USS Result 2026” or head directly to the dedicated “Results” tab on the interface.
  • Step 3: Enter your accurate credentials, which include your Registration Number and Date of Birth (formatted as DD/MM/YYYY), precisely as mentioned in your original hall ticket.
  • Step 4: Click on the “Submit” or “View Result” button. If the screen takes time to process, avoid refreshing multiple times as it can block your session.
  • Step 5: Once your breakdown of scores appears on the dashboard, download the digital copy or capture a screenshot, then print a physical copy for any future administrative or school needs.

Alternative links and troubleshooting tips

If bpekerala.in fails to open entirely, candidates are advised not to panic. A backup official digital platform has been set up to ease the main server load. Students can log into pareekshabhavan.kerala.gov.in to access mirrored links for checking their LSS and USS scholarship scores.

Additionally, you can follow these easy technical fixes to bypass server bottlenecks:

  • Clear browser data: Empty your browser cache or open the link using an Incognito/Private window.
  • Change connectivity: Switch your internet connection from mobile data to a stable Wi-Fi connection, or vice versa, to reset data routing.
  • Switch your browser: Try alternative web browsers like Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome instead of default system web viewers.
  • Check during off-peak windows: Wait for about 15 to 30 minutes and re-attempt during non-peak windows when server traffic naturally drops down.

Satellite imagery shows major cloud surge across India, weather alerts issued for multiple states

A massive collision between hot summer air and shifting moisture zones has triggered a yellow weather alert across India’s northern states, while southern regions prepare for an early monsoon burst.

Published

on

The weather dynamics over the Indian subcontinent are experiencing a dramatic shift. Recent thermal infrared space data has captured a massive atmospheric disturbance moving over the upper regions of Northern India, prompting weather authorities to declare warning alerts for several regions. Simultaneously, signs of seasonal wind shifts are rapidly accelerating in the southern parts of the country.

Himalayan states on alert for heavy downpours

According to data released by the state meteorological body, a yellow alert has been activated across various Himalayan states due to an eastward-moving weather system that is triggering unstable atmospheric conditions. Advanced INSAT-3DS tracking imagery shows a giant, spiral-shaped cloud cover spreading extensively over Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttarakhand.

Media reports confirm that these dense, cold cloud formations are the result of an active western disturbance colliding with hot pre-monsoon air masses over Northern India. The distinct bright white bands observed in the satellite visuals represent heavily developed thunderclouds. Experts warn that these formations have the capacity to trigger severe localized rain, heavy lightning, and intense hailstorms in the affected mountain zones.

Southern India braces for early monsoon arrival

While the northern mountains handle shifting cloud patterns, a completely different weather system is gathering strength in Southern India. Deep convective cloud formations are accumulating rapidly over the Arabian Sea, specifically near Lakshadweep and the Kerala coastline.

This specific cloud pattern points to an active surge of moisture moving from the equatorial Indian Ocean directly into the southern mainland, which serves as a major indicator that the southwest monsoon is arriving ahead of schedule. Official forecasts note that the onset of the seasonal rains could happen as early as May 26, bypassing the traditional June 1 timeline. This would stand out as one of the earliest recorded monsoon arrivals in recent years.

Intense heatwave collides with incoming moist air

The upcoming seasonal transition has sparked a complex environmental situation. Even as these rain systems intensify, large areas of Central and Northwest India continue to struggle under severe heatwave conditions.

This severe clash between the scorching, dry continental air over the central plains and the incoming moist marine currents is actively fueling violent, sudden thunderstorm activities further north. Analysts monitoring the real-time satellite maps observe a massive atmospheric tug-of-war, with heavy cloud shields expanding over both the Himalayan range and the Arabian Sea, signaling the official end of peak summer conditions across the nation. Looking ahead, authorities have issued warnings for isolated heavy to very heavy precipitation over Kerala between May 28 and June 3 as the moisture currents consolidate.

No uniform civil code provisions will be imposed on tribals, clarifies Amit Shah

Union Home Minister Amit Shah has assured tribal communities that the proposed Uniform Civil Code will not interfere with their customs, urging them not to be misled by misinformation.

Published

on

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday declared that the proposed Uniform Civil Code (UCC) will not impact tribal populations in any manner. He called upon the community to stay vigilant against “conspiracies” and misinformation circulating on the subject.

Addressing the Janjati Sanskritik Samagam—a tribal conclave organized by the Janjati Suraksha Manch at the Red Fort grounds to mark the 150th birth anniversary year of Birsa Munda—Shah stated that specific provisions have been implemented in states ruled by the ruling party to exclude tribal communities from the scope of the code.

Clarification on customs and traditions

The Home Minister highlighted that a deliberate narrative has emerged suggesting the proposed legislation would strip tribal societies of their distinct culture, traditions, and customary lifestyles.

He explicitly clarified that the central government has no intention of forcing UCC regulations upon tribal or Vanvasi communities. Shah pointed out that where regional administrations have initiated the code, care has been taken by the leadership to ensure that indigenous populations remain fully outside its jurisdiction. He requested attendees to disseminate this assurance deeply into forest zones and rural villages to erase lingering apprehensions.

Focus on security and community development

Beyond the legislative framework, Shah detailed the progress made toward curbing internal security threats, stating that the nation is steadily advancing toward eradicating Naxalism entirely. He noted that violent disruptions had severely restricted progress in these belts for decades, leading to the loss of thousands of tribal lives. According to the minister, regional stability will now pave the way for accelerated development across remote hills and forests.

The address also covered constitutional rights regarding personal faith. Shah mentioned that the original framework of the Constitution grants every citizen the dignity to practice their traditional beliefs without facing coercion, temptation, or material inducement for religious conversion.

Reflecting on financial allocations, the minister criticized earlier political administrations for keeping tribal welfare funding low. He underscored that the current administration under Prime Minister Narendra Modi significantly elevated the dedicated tribal budget from a previous Rs 28,000 crore to Rs 1.54 lakh crore. Terming the vast gathering a historical movement for cultural preservation, Shah described the societal awakening as a major step toward safeguarding tribal heritage for future generations.
