NEW DELHI: Amid a political storm over the findings of the National Register of Citizens survey concerning Assam, the Congress party on Thursday said that it is not against conducting such surveys if they are implemented as per the Assam Accord.
The senior Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad said that no Indian should be harassed in the process of identification and people should be given adequate opportunity to prove that they are the citizens of India.
The Congress veteran further demanded that the government should also provide legal assistance to people there.
On being asked as to how his party views the whole issue, Azad said, 'We see this as an humanitarian issue.'
Azad also accused the BJP of communalising it and warned that his party will not let anyone politicise the NRC issue.
