Within weeks of the list getting released, Prateek Hajela, an IAS officer who was the state NRC coordinator at that time and had overseen the entire exercise was transferred to his parent state Madhya Pradesh following instructions of the Supreme Court, which was monitoring the NRC process. He left Assam in November, 2019 and the Assam government appointed Hitesh Dev Sarma, another IAS officer, as the new state coordinator for NRC.
