*142. NPR: National Population Register* • The National Population Register exercise will be held between April and September 2020 in all states and Union Territories except Assam under the provisions of The Citizenship Act, 1955 & Citizenship (registration of citizens & issue of National identity Cards) Rules, 2003. • NPR: usual resident = (Citizens + Non-Citizens) defined as person who resided in a local area for past 6 months or intends to reside for next 6 months. • What data to be collected? Demographic + biometric • The database under the NPR will be maintained by the Registrar General of India and Census Commissioner of India, Ministry of Home Affairs. • The data for the NPR was first collected in 2010 along with the house listing phase of Census 2011 which was further updated in 2015. • NPR’s objective is to create “a comprehensive identity database in the country with full identification and other details by registering each and every usual resident in the country" Census: • Single source of a variety of statistical information on different characteristics of the people of India conducted on the basis of the Census Act enacted in 1948. • Procedure: House listing & enumerating. • Provides detailed and authentic information on demography, economic activity, literacy and education, housing and household amenities, urbanization, fertility and mortality, scheduled castes and scheduled tribes, language, religion, migration, disability besides others Benefits: • NPR - Identifying beneficiaries. • Data would be put for use of all stake holders and users including Ministries, Departments, State Governments, research organizations. • Census data is a powerful tool for public policy when combined with other administrative or survey data. • Direct as well as indirect employment generation across India Concern: • NPR as a first step to NRC in India - objection by few. • Cost: 3.3Cr in Assam - but can’t be mercantile on national security. Sovereign state has right to know who lives in their state. • Data will be with the government - privacy concerns. • Duplicity of efforts - Aadhar & NPR? • Noncooperation by few states is a breach of federal structure as citizenship falls in List 1 of Schedule 7 hence states are bound to follow.

@@surajkumarn4715 Shouldnt you prove then? Does not country has right to ensure citizens have the right and not immigrants? If we keep allowing illegal immigrants in name of humanity, demographics will change before you blink an eye. Already this is happening in Assam and Bengal. Citizenship register is the need of the hour. It is supposed to cause trouble to illegal immigrants and it should as well. This TMC and Congress know that if this happens they are going to lose vote bank since for eg Mamta Banerjee is allowing Bangladeshi immigrants and Rohingyas to subside in Bengal and against this favour is asking for votes. Another example, go to bordering districts of Assam. You will know how it is bangladeshi dominated in support by some of our corrupt and imprudent local politicians.
@Gopal Chandra Das I don't give a shit to what you think. If you got anti CAA arguments or counter arguements against what Mr. Deepak says, please put them up and educate all of us. You can also find Deepak on Twitter and please let him know about your arguements and prove to him how his arguments are flawed. Put up facts instead of saying cliched things, accusing him of being RSS or whatever helps you sleep at night isn't a very logical thing to do. Facts do not care about feelings. Good day.
@@gouthamkbhupalam5978 I'm always in awe with Sai Deepak sir for his legal knowledge and precision, but having said that, it would be wrong to think whatever he says / his view points are always right. In some of the discussion he lack the practical aspect of the matter. For example in one of the CAA discussion concerning the center- state relation (Federal Structure), he contradicts his own statement he made in the previous debate. Law doesn't exist by itself, it is made through popular opinion and public sentiments before it is finally passed in the parliament. Therefore, while enacting any new laws or amending the existing law, it is important to take into confidence all the stakeholders who will be affected by such law. While CAA in itself is not a bad law and was long overdue, there was not enough consultation and hence lack of consensus. Some of the issue concerning CAA are genuine, for example Assam and Tripura need government assurance for their grievances. Also there is a question of discrimination that the government need to respond to.
@@kolviczd6885 I'm in no way supporting all of what Deepak says. He's got good amount of knowledge. Yes there could be flaws and there's a need to bring them out.

@@DeepakKumar-ef6lu Respectfully I disagree though. If a monologue was to be presented, Frank himself was enough.

this topic could have been scheduled for tmrw. Amit Shah in his interview today mentioned that NPC has nothing to do with NRC. A person should submit a proof that he/she is Indian citizen during NRC survey. In NPR details are collected at face value and no documents are taken.
@@nidaunnisa1454 No, he clearly stated that NPR has nothing to do with NRC as no document is collected during NPR. NPR is self-certification. But in NRC, burden of proof lies with person and he/she needs to prove their citizenship by providing documents.
The scoundrels of this country don't want to share their basic existence and proof of it, but these same scoundrels demand more jobs, great economy, freebies, tax cuts or lowest taxes and all such nonsense laundry list... This is the quality of humans that we have in this country! This country will never grow! Period!!
@@abualisina9212 Nobody is spreading confusion. Peaceful biradari is just threatening the country with violence with a false and duplicitous excuse in NRC. NPR and NRC both will come and it will be for everyone, excluding nobody, linking CAA with it saying any Hindu could escape NRC with CAA when it was completely limited in scope(for non Muslims of 3 countries who came before 2014) is the fake narrative your belligerent biradari had spread...Stop it and behave like citizens must.
@@abualisina9212 no. BjP opposed detention camp policy for Assam NRC. Assam NRC was conducted as per guidelines of SC, Guwahati HC asked Congress govt to build detention centers in Assam. If an Indian Hindu fails to prove, he is just an illegal, a non-citizen, how the heck can he prove he came from Pak, BD before 2014? if he can illegally prove that which involves IB, RAW, Home ministry scrutiny he could prove his citizenship also and then a muslim too can prove it so don't fall for these absurd reasonings. There is not a single thing discriminatory in NRC and our constitution isn't so weak that it would allow that. NRC will go through smoothly, 99% population would be covered passively as far as I can guess but it is still 3 years away. First CAA, camps for CAA are already being set, then NPR/CENSUS,then NRC.
One thing is for certain that J Sai Deepak is a strong supporter of the exercise of the nation wide NRC as he's the only one who is talking about a prospective NRC even though the Home Minister has repeatedly announced that there's no plan to undertake the same.
the home minister has said nrc will happen for sure but when will it happen or what will be it's shape n size has not yet been discussed. understand the difference.
Every time I amazed to see Sai Deepak, he is having clear and legal understanding about any given issue....he will have great future innnnnnnnnnnn……...BJP? ;):)
Why do we need to carry out NPR and Census independently? I understand NPR collects the data about anyone living or intends to live in India (citizens + non-citizens) and Census is only for the citizens. I also understand that while conducting NPR, government doesn't need any ID proof and the data is collected on the face value, which is not the case in Census. But can we not merge these two exercises? Anyone producing the ID proof will be asked the detailed questionnaire of Census. Anyone (obviously non-citizens), who is living / intends to live in the country but fails to provide the ID proof, can be asked general questionnaire of NPR and collected in a seperate list.
My one point. If NPR is used for formulating better policies and targeted action plans,then why aadhar cards have unnecessarily been issued??? The point is why this duplicity of the same kind of exercise which have already done before for the same purpose??Aadhar card have been issued to almost all persons in India and their biometric data is with govt.If aadhar can be issued to an illegal immigrant..then what is the guarantee that NPR or NRC will be foolproof???We have already seen that some genuine people rejected and some illegal people got included in NRC in assam.Moreover once you prepared a final NRC,can you guarantee that no single illegal person will stay further in India or enter in india?? I think for 130 crore population,it will be very very difficult.Also given the present state of bureaucratic machinary which issues document to people,one can imagine how things can turn out to be. Anyway..tnx rstv
understand how aadhar is used in public distribution system, it's a biometric identity card which ensures that only a genuine candidate gets the benefit of a certain scheme, now how do u come up with a list of these candidates for a certain scheme? what is the total number of such people in a certain geographical area, what are the kind of schemes really needed for the people in a certain area, thats what npr does. it's just a list n not an identity card, moreover i got my aadhar years back but what is my current requirement is not stored on aadhar for which u need an updated list of the condition of people. now nrc is a proposed list of citizens of india, which should have been done soon after freedom but various govts kept postponing it considering the possible political fallout of such an exercise...but still a much needed exercise. having said that npr data definitely can be used for nrc.
Difference is that aadhar is for identity and NPR is for identification of beneficiaries.... How would you know about whom should be benefited with particular aadhar number

1) Why does India need to spend its money on COSTLY duplicate exercises viz Census or NPR or Aadhar in order to built databases of people? why can't we try to improve one database for targeted schemes/security or any other purpose? 2) CAA/NPR/NCR exercises are not need of the hour when the country actually needs to recover from worsening economic situation. Govt should address concerns over official notifications issued at various points of time to link NPR and NRC. Also We can start these exercises after conducting all-inclusive wide range of debate/discussions both inside and outside parliament (but we bring acts first and address concerns of people later). NRC implemented in Assam had good intention to filter out illegal migrants but definitely with flawed implementation (Haven't we learned any lesson from it?). Many people were excluded and we saw deaths by depression (due to exclusion esp of migrant labour/Adivasis/marginalized communities/ people affected by disasters who lost their documents as well as human error) 3) Instead of people discussing on access to health/education/employment, all we can see news related to protest, communalism, rape, encounters (we agree these are genuine issues and my point is not try to give less importance but make us to think what circumstances/reasons have forced India in the current situation)
Okay stop! U r a ANTI- NATIONAL already!! We need to discuss and then spend these many of crores n millions ( even after spending some Rs 1300 crores on unsuccessful conduct of NCR in Assam) NRC /CAB/ NPR, and now, coz these things will divert, and successfully have , all our debates around unemployment, economic crisis and pathetic condition of our schools and colleges. and also these things are important for RSS agenda of Hindutva , and hence , for BJP to stay in power ,and hence, for our government..since its "a Nationalist and PATRIOTIC party "! So please don't ASK anything you LIBTARD!!
From that logic, we should stop spending money on defence, on space programme etc as well? Also, we should not have conducted NPR, Census earlier also! Please think before saying something.
The Citizenship (Registration of Citizens and Issue of National Identity Card) Rules, 2003, introduced the term ‘Population Register’ and said particulars collected in the population register shall be verified and scrutinised for the purpose of preparation and inclusion in the citizenship register. In other words, without NPR there can be no NRIC.
At 16:30, I would like to ask Sai sir a question - Sir, if the threshold is really so low, why were over 3 million people left out? Several of them who have represented India in the army. Why have only half the families been included while the other half been excluded? If it was really this easy to get your name into the NRC, why have so many people, who have many of the documents listed (Voter Ids etc.) been excluded?
@अमन सिंहformer president of India 1974 fakhruddin ali ahmeds family has also been excluded... These are some prominent figures imagine what is the state of people of low literacy, tribals, bpl families. Even if the get their names on the NRC after the tribunal way its not acceptable
@@karthika560 yes you are absolutely right it should have been done and dusted in 1972/73. However I don't agree with the reasons of Government to reject the supreme court ordered NRC.

Government have collected all of our biometric data as their need and policy researcher, then what and whereis the privacy in this segment as per the fundamental right of privacy
First read the SC's order. Government has the right to collect biometric data and use Aadhar for welfare schemes and prevent leakages. The privacy factor puts an obligation on government to prevent misuse of data and maintain its security.

Some points Citizen rule 3 sub section 4 preparation of NPR , gvt to maintain register. Population = NPR-} NRC To know the people live Opposition. Party's view point of Kerala Apprehension of CAA List 1 of 7th schedule CAA - adding 6B Money from : consolidated fund Privacy of data Awareness program need to be come out Adar data, not mandatory.
NPR is the register which contains information about residents ( citizen+non citizen) but Aadhar is primarily for citizens Plus according to Aadhar act, aadhar can't solely be used to prove someone's citizenship.
Why does the new NPR have additional questions related to parents' birth? Why does it have to be seeded with Aadhar? What about various data leaks associated with Aadhar? What is the privacy level of NPR? What if it's used for voter profiling? None of the popular concerns were discussed. Another poor discussion on Big Picture. The quality is going down everytime
Anurag Prabhakar there is no question related to parent’s birth, it’s not mandatory. Npr is list of citizens and non citizens, so it’s a supplement for the nationwide NRC, And regarding the privacy , as discussed in the debate. It’s upto the person, if he/she wants to enjoy the fruits of the govt and voting rights and be a beneficiary of the govt schemes And if it it leaked or used for voting mileage, it will be challenged in the supreme court and we have a separate commission for that, that is the Election commission.
And also the govt still has to comeup with broad and wide mechanism for its implementations and impacts , for which the govt still has time That is upto april 2020 And NPR and census data collection will be starting from i guess march 2020
I guess since most of the concerns have been addressed, I can shed some light on data privacy issues of the aadhar. UIDAI only stores your aadhar data. All of your PAN Card or other documents linked to that are not maintained at their end. It sits at the respective client's server. Plus UIDAI is one of the world's safest systems ever built. There have been few leaks but none of them was a direct breach into aadhar's database. The instances have been majorly, mishandling by some officials, or by scamming users to get their aadhar details etc. Plus Facebook WhatsApp Instagram and RU-vid data is already being sold to private partners. Even chats are being used to analyze your personality, or your relationships with a person. All your browser search history is used by almost every website that you visit. It's ironical that a person using internet talks about privacy. One can easily gues your personality, your buying behavior, peoples you engage with, or even places your visit, your scores, your family, address using your Internet data. Stop using internet if you're concerned with privacy.
@john doe I'll tell you why... 1) Of course to use it for proper implementation of schemes. 2) As a primer for NRC so that NRC rules and regulations can be better planned. 3) To get an idea of who exactly are the citizens and non citizens of this country. All the why's were answered by J Sai Deepak only if you've heard it properly. I am not writing this to convince you because you aren't a real person. You are being paid for this. I am writing this in a hope someone reading comments might have a look at this.
NPR is to know 1) How many people inside the country - including new borns, foreigners who are living here? 2) Where are they are living for last 6 months 4) Where they intend to live for next 6 months (example: My AADHAR shows I am from West Bengal, but for my job I am living in HYD for last 4 years) 4) Who are Citizens and who are non-citizens (as such working on work visa, long term tourist etc) Can our AADHAR answer all these? In a 1.35 billion people's country (+ foreigners), internal movement and mix of people are very very dynamic and NPR exercise is absolute necessary to know the placement of people and how long they intend to stay in that place - this is needed to allocate budget for many government schemes, state budget, security etc.
Sec 14 of citizenship rules 2003 imposes a discretionary(MAY) duty on central govt on NPR , but rule 11 imposes a mandate(SHALL) on Registrar general of India to maintain NRIC , contradictory rules lead to all apprehensions
In case of NRC is it right that- NO DOCUMENTS= NON CITIZEN ? and if that so then , what is rationale behind the fact that a set of documents will reduce oneself to be a citizen or non citizen?
NPR maybe used for NRC. So it is not mandatory. NPR can be used as a basis of NRC but it's up to the govt. That's is why Amith shah is saying that NPR and NRC is different. The govt is making a distinction b/w NPR and NRC. Before NRC we need to implement NPR because we need to how many people live in different demographic area.
It is all politics of polarisation,upa did bring in the npr but it happened simultaneously with census ,now npr ,and then census ,then nric ,this govt has gone mad ,atleast do npr and census together ,no need to waste 4000 cr earmarked for it ,and 8000 cr for census ,

NPR is necessary and a basis for knowing the existing citizens in this country and the cost for this exercise is justified. But if they are trying to do the NRC exercise and by infusing a lot of money for that is something very risky. Economy is not performing well currently and at this crisis situation, infusing money for such a big exercise for the sake of national security is not something that one will prefer.

Though there is no connection between NRC and NPR,It's a terrible timing to give nod for NPR when the minorities are apprehended about the ambiguity of NRC+CAA.
He will never tell you the difference between Census and NPR. If the goals for NPR is to target schemes, Census does that even better, it has much more comprehensive questions. NPR was started as a comprehensive tool to encompasse both citizenship and benefit transfer, but over time the direction tilted towards AADHAR as sole instrument. NPR effectively today is USELESS, but for the NRC. Unlike the Census, NPR comes from the Citizenship Amendment rules 2003, allows the Local Registrar to mark individuals as 'doubtful citizens' and the criteria for such classification is not mentioned. He knows that, this will lead to large-scale punitive decisions and poorer communities targeted and exploited.
mr prime minister says something about nrc and amit said different from mr. prime minister, prakash javdekar said different about it so there are not consensus even party members about particular issues then people get apprehended natyrally
Sai Deepak has good knowledge...but he seemed to be biased in today's issue....there is need to see the negatives of NRC and shouldn't be ephemeral in approach like our illiterate ministers.

Sir NRC and NPR is not the problem. Post implication of CAA sword on the particular religious group of citizens incase if they fail to provide some authentic documents. No doubt NRC and NPA should be carried out for the betterment. After CAA amendment bought all doubts on NRC and NPA and also it was never question raised before ! Issue is no clearance in their steps.
@parth paul that's the problem the NDA ministers should be responsible enough and should not have made such statements during the election campaign for vote bank appeasement. Thus confusing people.
A very carefully scripted discussion where only legality of NPR was substantiated and it was portrayed as a normal exercise that had happened in the past, conveniently leaving out questionable intentions of the govt in appending the questionnaire of NPR with questions such as parent's place of birth and children's place of birth . A very direct and valid question which should have been put forward to the experts is that could this exercise be misused by government to do head-counting of minorities and question there citizenship status without leaving them any opportunity for legal recourse
