"I want to ask Nadda whether they will bring NRC or not. Why is he hiding? If he has the guts then he should say that they would implement NRC. Our fight is not political... Due to NRC, every citizen of India would have to prove that he or she is Indian," Singh told reporters in Delhi.

"People will be asked to furnish the birth certificate of their father. Modi Ji is not being able to provide his education certificate and he is demanding a certificate from the citizens," he alleged.
