Answer:

Gerua, in the Hajo circle of the Kamrup district of Assam.

Explanation:

• The state government of Assam had asked the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), New Delhi to take into consideration establishing a sub-station of the National Rice Research Institute (NRRI) in Assam to support the state's efforts on rice research, as NRRI plays a crucial role in rice research across the nation, in order to develop suitable high yielding varieties and production technology, particularly for flood prone lowlands of Assam.
• The ICAR took this matter under consideration, and on September 15, 1997, a Regional Rain-fed Lowland Rice Research Station (RRLRRS) was established as a sub-station under ICAR-NRRI at the location of the Department of Agriculture Field Trial Station (12.5 ha) in Gerua, in the Hajo circle of the Kamrup district of Assam.
