Answer: (A) Sankardev
Srimanta Sankaradeva was a 15th-16th century Assamese polymath, saint-scholar, social reformer, poet, playwright, and the principal figure in the Neo-Vaishnavite movement in Assam. His teachings, known as Ekasarana Dharma, centered on devotion to Lord Krishna and advocated for a casteless society. He established Sattras (monasteries) and Namghars (prayer halls) which became vital socio-religious institutions. Sankaradeva's prolific literary works include Borgeets (devotional songs), Ankia Naats (plays), and he is credited with developing the classical dance form Sattriya. His influence profoundly shaped Assamese culture and continues to resonate today.
