Manipur Civil Society Groups Rush To Delhi, Seek NRC Before Census To Identify Illegal Immigrants

Civil society groups from Manipur have traveled to Delhi to urge the government to conduct the National Register of Citizens (NRC) before the census. They argue that without an NRC first, the census could end up skewing data due to widespread displacement and institutional chaos, potentially entrenching demographic imbalances. This move highlights the ongoing concerns about illegal immigration and its impact on state data integrity, underscoring the urgency to address these issues to ensure fair and accurate representation in national statistics.
