#Assam

A single mother working hard to raise her sons, Bishaka, hardly knew what was happening in the state, why notices were being issued to people and what needed to be done. When the notice came for her from the #ForeignersTribunal, she was neither aware of the notices nor equipped to understand how to respond. Her sons were also unaware of the notices being served to their mother.
The fate of over 1.9 million people who have been left out of the National Register of Citizens (#NRC) in Assam now rests with the Foreigners Tribunals. If 100 Foreigners Tribunals, can create such a havoc, leaving thousands stateless, imagine what can happen if a national NRC is implemented.
Amnesty India's report #DesignedToExclude shows how India's Courts are allowing Foreigners Tribunals to render people stateless. Read the report here:
