Geography section

»A significant geographical aspect of Assam is that it contains three of six physiographic divisions of India – The Northern Himalayas (Eastern Hills), The Northern Plains (Brahmaputra plain) and Deccan Plateau (Karbi Anglong). As the Brahmaputra flows in Assam the climate here is cold and there is rainfall most of the month.« This part stinks to heaven.

-Assamese are not the only people living here so the demonym Assamese is not exactly the correct term, this will create confusions for the people about the indigenous people living in Assam [[User:Inspi97|Inspi97]] ([[User talk:Inspi97|talk]]) 13:57, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
-:Yes, there are many other people here other than locals. There are loads of tourists, and other state Indians. But the majority of Assam is filled with Assamese and about 95% 9f it's population.
