Correct Option

The Constitution (71st Amendment) Act, 1992, incorporated Konkani, Manipuri, and Nepali into the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution.

The inclusion aimed to officially recognize the distinct linguistic and cultural identities of these communities.

Incorrect Options

• Maithili (Option 4) was not added by the 71st Amendment Act, 1992. It was subsequently included in the Eighth Schedule, along with Bodo, Dogri, and Santhali, by the 92nd Constitutional Amendment Act, 2003.
• Options B, C, and D are incorrect as they either omit one of the languages added by the 71st Amendment (Konkani, Manipuri, Nepali) or erroneously include Maithili.
