Answer:
River Island of Majuli, Midstream of Brahmaputra, Assam is not yet a UNESCO World Heritage Site in India.
Explanation:
The Central government recently decided to present two locations both from Madhya Pradesh to the World Heritage Centre (WHC) to be recognised as World Heritage Sites this year, despite Majuli being claimed to be the largest populated river island in the world. At a meeting of the World Heritage Committee in Suzhou, China, Majuli was selected as a candidate for the "tentative list" of World Heritage Sites. Additionally, a thorough nomination dossier was provided in 2006, and more details were added in 2008. The proposal for Majuli's inclusion in the UNESCO World Heritage Sites was sent in 2017 by the culture ministry. In this regard, Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal also met with former Culture Minister Mahesh Sharma and underlined the state's resolve to have the Majuli River Island added to the list of World Heritage Sites.
Thus, River Island of Majuli is still out of the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites in India.
