As per the draft National Register of Citizens (NRC) published in July 2018, in which State were more than 40 lakh illegal immigrants found?

1. A

   Nagaland

   Nagaland was not the State of the July 2018 NRC draft that listed over forty lakh exclusions. This option is not the key.

2. B

   Mizoram

   Mizoram has its own inner-line and citizenship politics, but the 2018 NRC draft figure belongs to Assam. This option is therefore wrong.

3. C

   Assam

   Assam published a complete draft National Register of Citizens in July 2018 in which more than forty lakh names were left out, widely reported as alleged illegal immigrants pending claims. This option is the official key.

4. D

   Tripura

   Tripura was not the NRC-draft State of that headline number. This option is not the key.

Summary. Official key is (c) Assam. The Supreme Court-monitored NRC update produced a 30 July 2018 draft excluding over forty lakh applicants. Nagaland, Mizoram and Tripura did not publish that draft. A later 2019 list reduced exclusions. Only (c) matches the stem.
