An independent fact-finding report has revealed that people were forcefully evicted from Assam’s Dholpur and they were not illegal immigrants, as claimed by the Right-wing groups.
The affected families were living legally in the area with documents dated back to pre-1971.
The forceful eviction and firing upon the poor Muslims had sparked widespread outrage as the visuals of the police action during the eviction went viral over Social media.
The visuals showed the Police using brute force against the Muslims and a photographer jumping on the body of a Muslim, moments after he was shot allegedly in police firing.

Titled ‘Dhalpur-The Truth Behind’ by Guwahati-based Centre for Minority Studies, Research and Development (CMSRD) the report said that the team members stayed in the area for 15 days and interacted with 517 of the 963 evicted families.
According to the report, out of the 517 families surveyed, 514 had their National Register of Citizens (NRC) legacy data with them. Names of only three heads of families were found to be “doubtful” voters (D-Voters).
Three months after the eviction drive in which two villagers were killed and several were injured in police firing, the report points out glaring loopholes in the police theory, stating that the police opened fire on the villagers without “trying to normalise the situation”.
“Forty-three people were injured, among them 10 received bullet injuries. On the other side, 14 policemen were injured during this operation,” the report stated.
BJP responded to the report saying CMSRD should approach the court if it has issues with the eviction drive.
