Which of the following is the capital of Assam?

• A. Guwahati
• B. Itanagar
• C. Dispur
• D. Shillong

Answer: (C)

Dispur is the capital of Assam. It serves as the administrative seat where the state government offices, including the secretariat and the legislative assembly, are located. The capital was shifted here in 1973 after Meghalaya was carved out of Assam, so the governing center stays in Dispur while Guwahati remains the major urban and commercial hub. Itanagar is the capital of Arunachal Pradesh, Shillong is the capital of Meghalaya, and Guwahati is the largest city in Assam, not the state capital.
