Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Alaknanda – Pindar.

The correct pair is Alaknanda – Pindar. The Alaknanda River is a major tributary of the Ganga River, and the Pindar River is one of its tributaries, flowing into the Alaknanda in Uttarakhand. The other pairs are incorrect:

  • Indus – Subansiri: Subansiri is a tributary of the Brahmaputra, not the Indus.
  • Godavari – Kabini: Kabini is a tributary of the Kaveri River, not the Godavari.
  • Krishna – Manjra: The Manjra River is a tributary of the Godavari, not the Krishna.
