National waterway number 2 has been established on which river?
Brahmaputra
National Waterway 2 (NW-2) was declared in 1988 on the Brahmaputra river, along the 891 km stretch from Dhubri to Sadiya in Assam.
For comparison, National Waterway 1 is on the Ganga-Bhagirathi-Hooghly system (Haldia to Prayagraj) and National Waterway 16 is on the Barak river. The Yamuna is not the river of NW-2.
Hence, National Waterway 2 is on the Brahmaputra.
