Who among the following was appointed by the Constituent Assembly of India as Head of the Sub-Committee for North-East Frontier (Assam) Tribal and Excluded Areas?
Gopinath Bordoloi
The Constituent Assembly set up several sub-committees to frame provisions for tribal and excluded areas, including one dedicated to the North-East Frontier (Assam) Tribal and Excluded Areas.
Gopinath Bordoloi, who was also the Premier/Chief Minister of Assam at the time, was appointed to head this sub-committee, and its recommendations formed the basis of the Sixth Schedule provisions for autonomous tribal areas in Assam.
Rupnath Brahma was a member of this sub-committee representing the Bodo community, while Bishnuram Medhi and Tarun Ram Phukan were other Assam Congress leaders, but neither headed this particular sub-committee.
Hence, the answer is Gopinath Bordoloi.
