Which of the following languages was not included by the 92nd Amendment Act of 2003 (in the Eighth Schedule)?

  • A.Odia
  • B.Bodo
  • C.Dongri
  • D.Maithili

Answer: A

The language not added by the 92nd Amendment is Odia.

The 92nd Amendment Act, 2003, added four languages to the Eighth Schedule: Bodo, Dogri, Maithili and Santhali, taking the total to 22. Odia (then spelt Oriya) has been in the Eighth Schedule since the Constitution came into force in 1950; the 96th Amendment of 2011 only changed its spelling from Oriya to Odia.

Bodo and Maithili are named in the amendment, and the paper's 'Dongri' is Dogri, the language of Jammu, also added in 2003.
