Hirakud Dam is located on which river?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Mahanadi

The direct answer is D: Mahanadi. Hirakud Dam is built across the Mahanadi River in Odisha. It is one of India’s important multipurpose river projects, helping with water storage, irrigation, flood control and hydroelectric power. Step by step: identify Hirakud as a major dam in Odisha; recall the river flowing through that region; match it with Mahanadi. Option D is correct because Hirakud and Mahanadi are a standard geography pair. Option A, Godavari, is wrong because although it is a major peninsular river, Hirakud is not built on it. Option B, Narmada, is wrong because major dams such as Sardar Sarovar are associated with the Narmada. Option C, Krishna, is wrong because it is a separate southern river system with different dams. The location clue is useful: Hirakud in Odisha should immediately bring Mahanadi to mind. Memory cue: ‘Hirakud–Mahanadi–Odisha.’
