Fact: No Indian citizen of any religion needs to worry at all either about CAA or NRC.
When NRC comes, Do I have to prove ancestry dating back before 1971?

Ans: No. You don’t have to prove any ancestry by presenting any document like ID cards or birth certificates of parents/ ancestors dating back to before 1971. That was valid only for the Assam NRC and mandated by the Assam Accord and implemented on the directions of Hon’ble Supreme Court. NRC procedure in the rest of the country is entirely different as provided under The Citizenship(Registration of Citizens and Issue of National Identity Cards) Rules, 2003. and Many other myth busted in this explainer programme
