Final Answer:

Before departing Shillong a few days after independence, John Rowntree held the position of Senior Conservator of the Forests of Assam.

Explanation:

  • John Stephenson Rowntree, a director of York's Rowntree's and a reformer of the Quaker movement in the UK, lived from 2 May 1834 to 13 April 1907. He was the oldest child of Sarah Stephenson and Joseph Rowntree.
  • The last British Senior Conservator of Assam Forests was John Rowntree (1906–1975). A few days after independence, he and his family left Shillong and went back to England, where he started working as a journalist and media analyst.
  • John Rowntree spent some time in Assam, where he had a terrible flood experience. He mentioned that during the monsoon's high rains, the North Banks of the River Brahmaputra would flood. He once attempted to ride his horse across a river that was flooded and coerced it into entering the water.
