👁 1 viewsThe correct answer is A: Krishna. Tungabhadra and Musi are important tributaries of the Krishna River, a major river flowing through western and southern India. Tungabhadra joins Krishna in the state of Karnataka, while Musi joins Krishna in Andhra Pradesh/Telangana region downstream. Understanding river systems helps in grasping irrigation, hydroelectric projects, and regional geography. The other options refer to different river basins: Cauvery is largely associated with its own set of tributaries in the south, Mahanadi drains into the Bay of Bengal with separate tributaries, and Godavari is another major south Indian river with its own tributaries. Hence, Tungabhadra and Musi are not primarily linked to them.
The Krishna River is one of the longest rivers in India and plays a crucial role in irrigation and power generation in the regions it traverses.
Tungabhadra and Musi are tributaries of the Krishna River.
Q48. Mormugao port is located on:
👁 3 viewsThe correct answer is Konkan coast. Mormugao Port is located in Goa, along the Konkan coast which runs parallel to the western edge of the Indian peninsula from Maharashtra to Karnataka. The port serves as a major deep-water facility on the west coast and is known for its strategic natural harbour. The Malabar coast (west coast of Kerala and Indian Malabar region) and Kathiwar coast (also referred to as the Kathiawar or Saurashtra coast) are different stretches further north and west in the Arabian Sea. Kakinada coast lies on the eastern coast of India along Andhra Pradesh. So the location aligns with the Konkan coast.
Konkan coast forms the western coastline of the Western Ghats and includes major ports like Mumbai and Goa's Mormugao.
Mormugao Port is on the Konkan coast—the western coastal belt of India between Maharashtra and Goa.
