The correct answer is: B. 7.2%
The Scheduled Castes (SCs) are a group of people who have been historically discriminated against in India. They are listed in the Constitution of India as being socially and educationally backward. The SC population in Assam is 7.2%, according to the 2011 Census of India.
The SCs are entitled to a number of affirmative action measures, such as reservations in education and employment. They are also eligible for a number of government benefits, such as loans and subsidies.
The SCs have made significant progress in recent years, but they continue to face discrimination and disadvantage. The government has taken a number of steps to address these issues, but more needs to be done to ensure that the SCs have equal opportunities in society.
The other options are incorrect because they do not represent the percentage of SC population in Assam.
