Q. Consider the following statements regarding the Kosi River:

1. The Kosi originates from the Milam glacier in the Nepal Himalayas.
2. The Kosi is an antecedent river.
3. It is joined by the Son Kosi from the west and the Tamur Kosi from the east.

Which of the above statements is / are correct?
Answer: Only 2
Notes: The Kosi River is classified as an antecedent river, cutting through the Himalayas as they rose. It does not originate from the Milam glacier but from north of Mount Everest, where the Arun river rises in Tibet. The Son Kosi joins from the west while the Tamur Kosi joins from the east; thus, only the second statement is correct.
