Q. Consider the following statements regarding the Kaveri River:- It is the most southerly and the second largest east-flowing river system of Peninsular India.
- It is the least seasonal river among all the major peninsular rivers.
Which of the above statements is/are correct?
Answer:
Only 2
Notes: The correct answer is option 4. The first statement is incorrect; while the Kaveri is the most southerly, the Krishna River—not Kaveri—is the second largest east-flowing river system. The Godavari is the largest. The second statement is correct because the Kaveri, owing to a long rainy season in its basin, is the least seasonal among major peninsular rivers.
