A. 1, 2 and 3 only✓ Correct Answer
B. 1 and 4 only
C. 2, 3 and 4 only
D. 1, 2, 3 and 4
💡 Solution & Explanation
The Chambal, Betwa, and Ken rivers originate in the central highlands and Vindhyan ranges, flowing northward to join the Yamuna River as right-bank tributaries. In contrast, the Son River flows north from the Amarkantak plateau to empty directly into the Ganga River from its right bank, rather than feeding the Yamuna. Drainage pattern analysis is an important geographical topic.
