Which of the following is a major river in Bangladesh which is also the main distributary of the Ganges?
Padma
The correct answer is Padma.
On entering Bangladesh, the Ganges is renamed the Padma, which is its main distributary. It flows southeast, merges with the Jamuna (Brahmaputra) and then the Meghna, before draining into the Bay of Bengal. Gandak, Kosi, and Gomti are tributaries of the Ganges within India, not distributaries in Bangladesh.
