In view of the Judgment and Order dated 05.04.2018 passed by
the Division bench of the Hon'ble Gauhati High Court in WP(C) No.
Page No.# 5/25
3728/2016 (Nasir Uddin Vs. Union of India and Ors.) the
documents cannot be accepted as reliable and trustworthy
documents. The documents Exts. "D", "E", "F" and "G" are the
voter lists of 1997, 2005, 2010 and 2014 which the proceedee
claims to be his own voter lists. But the documents are of post
1971 period and merely recording of name in the voter list by
itself is not a conclusive proof of citizenship. As such the
documents cannot be accepted in support of the proceedee's
claim of Indian Citizenship".
