Zorluk: ZorDrainage System and Water Resources of India

A major Peninsular river tributary originates in the Balaghat Range of Maharashtra, flows southeast through Karnataka and Telangana, and feeds the historic Nizam Sagar Dam before joining its main river system as a prominent right-bank tributary. Which of the following tributaries is being described?

  1. A
    Pranhita River
  2. B
    Indravati River
  3. Manjira RiverCevap
  4. D
    Sabari River

Cevap

The Manjira River is a right-bank tributary of the Godavari River that originates in the Balaghat Range of Maharashtra and feeds the Nizam Sagar Dam in Telangana.
The Manjira River originates in the Balaghat Range of hills in Maharashtra, flows southeast through Karnataka and Telangana, and is the most significant right-bank tributary of the Godavari River. It is also the source of water for the historic Nizam Sagar and Singur reservoirs.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze tributary bank orientation relative to the Godavari River.
Pranhita, Indravati, and Sabari join the Godavari from the left (north/east), whereas Manjira joins from the right (south).
Filtering by bank orientation eliminates the left-bank tributaries.
2
Verify place of origin and associated water resources infrastructure.
The Manjira River originates in the Balaghat Range in Maharashtra and feeds the Nizam Sagar Reservoir in Telangana.
Matching physical geography details (Balaghat Range) and irrigation infrastructure (Nizam Sagar Dam) confirms the Manjira River.
