He also argued that though the NRC (\/search?query=NRC) statute does not have a specific remedy, the Supreme Court can carve out an appeal procedure.<br \/>\nState of Assam and Centre had earlier said that judicial verdict will supercede the NRC executive exercise. The court had, on March 26, directed the Chief Secretary and Home Secretary of Assam to appear before it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">(Source: ANI)<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align:
