Sitaram Yechury urges people to say 'No' to NPR and 'Yes' to Census

Thiruvananthapuram, Jan 19 (UNI) CPI(M) General Secretary Sitaram Yechury on Sunday urged people to say 'No' to National Population Register (NPR) and 'Yes' to Census.
"CENSUS YES – NPR NO. NPR –“We Shall Not Answer” (Jawaab Nahi Denge). For the NRC the answer will be “Hum Kaghaz Nahi Dhikayenge” (We shall not show Papers)," Yechury said in a tweet.
"The house to house campaign on NPR-NRC linkage will culminate on March 23 marking the martyrdom of our immortal martyrs – Bhagat Singh, Rajguru and Sukhdev and to join the efforts to realise Bhagat Singh’s vision of an exploitation-free, inclusive new India," he added.
The three-day CPI(M) Central Committee which concluded today, in a statement, also urged people to not answer any questions concerning the NPR when the enumerators come to their houses.
"These enumerators will have two sets of questions – one for the Census and one for the NPR. While the questions related to the Census may be answered, the questions related to the NPR must not be. CENSUS YES – NPR NO," the statement said.
