Identifying River-State Pairings

Let's analyze each river and its primary state association from the given options:

  • (i) Kameng River: The Kameng River, also known as the Jia Bhoreli in Assam, flows through Arunachal Pradesh and then enters Assam. Therefore, the correct state association is (d) Assam.
  • (ii) Baitarani River: The Baitarani River is a major river in Odisha, flowing across the northern part of the state before joining the Brahmani River near the Bay of Bengal. It also has a smaller portion in Jharkhand. The best match from the options is (a) Odisha.
  • (iii) Girna River: The Girna River is a tributary of the Tapi River (also known as Tapti). It flows entirely within the state of Maharashtra. Thus, the correct state is (b) Maharashtra.
  • (iv) Hasdeo River: The Hasdeo River is a significant tributary of the Mahanadi River. It originates in the Chhattisgarh plains and flows through the state before merging with the Mahanadi. The correct state is (c) Chhattisgarh.
