Which river originates near Sihawa in Chhattisgarh and flows eastward to the Bay of Bengal?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Mahanadi

The Mahanadi originates near Sihawa in the Dhamtari region of Chhattisgarh and flows generally eastward before emptying into the Bay of Bengal. Therefore, option B is correct. Its basin extends across parts of central and eastern India and supports agriculture, settlements, and several irrigation and water-resource projects. The location of the source and the direction of flow together provide a clear identification clue. Tapi and Narmada rise in central India but flow westward toward the Arabian Sea. Mahi also follows a westward course and reaches the Arabian Sea. Thus, among the choices, only the Mahanadi matches both Sihawa as the source area and the Bay of Bengal as the outlet.
