Samvidhan Ki Shapath: Assam NRC draft: NDA did what UPA couldn't, says Amit Shah

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Amit Shah on Monday charged the UPA governments of not showing the courage to identify and deport illegal immigrants from Assam as per an accord which was signed by erstwhile Prime Minister late Rajiv Gandhi in 1985.

Addressing a press conference, Shah said that by overlooking the National Register of Citizens (NRC) draft in 2005, the Congress underplayed the safety and security of the Indian citizens just to "play vote-bank politics".
