Vijayawada city is located on the bank of which river?

Krishna

Vijayawada is an important city of Andhra Pradesh and is situated on the banks of the Krishna River. The river is a major peninsular river that flows eastward toward the Bay of Bengal. Its location has supported settlement, agriculture, transport, and the growth of Vijayawada. The riverbank setting is therefore an important geographical feature of the city.

Option A, Krishna, is correct. The Tapi flows westward through central India and is associated with cities and regions different from Vijayawada. The Kali River is linked mainly with the western coastal region, while the Son is a tributary of the Ganga in northern and central India. These rivers do not identify Vijayawada. A useful factual pair for revision is Vijayawada–Krishna, just as other Indian cities can be remembered with their major rivers.
