The CM had earlier also said that she would not allow NRC in her state.

Chief Minister of West Bengal Mamata Banerjee on Thursday said she would “never allow” the implementation of the National Register of Citizens (NRC) in the state.

“One need not worry about citizenship. That (NRC) will not happen here (in West Bengal). I am the guarantor,” Banerjee said at an administrative review meeting here.

The CM had earlier also said that she would not allow NRC in her state.

Banerjee also advised people to exercise their right to vote and ensure that their names appear in the electoral rolls.

“You all must make sure to vote… I would also advise people to update their Aadhaar cards on time and every 10 years,” she added.
