Which of the following languages was conferred Classical Language status in October 2024?
Marathi
In October 2024, the Union Cabinet approved granting Classical Language status to five more languages, namely Marathi, Pali, Prakrit, Assamese, and Bengali.
Tamil, Kannada, and Odia had already been granted Classical Language status in earlier years (Tamil in 2004, Kannada in 2008, and Odia in 2014), so they were not part of the October 2024 announcement.
Hence, the correct answer is Marathi.
