He said this is only the part draft of the NRC and that there is no need to worry if anyone's name has not been included in the part draft that has been published.
"It only means that his or her name is at some stage of verification," he said.
The NRC authorities had received applications submitted by 3.29 crore people, accompanied by six crore documents, of the state for inclusion of heir names in the NRC.
