The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Meghalaya was carved out of Assam in 1972, becoming an autonomous state. The state's formation was a result of the demands for autonomy by the Khasi, Garo, and Jaintia tribes, which were previously part of Assam. This was a significant step in recognizing the cultural and administrative aspirations of these tribal communities.
