Which river is called Yarlung Tsangpo in Tibet and becomes the Brahmaputra after entering India?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Brahmaputra

The governing concept is that a transboundary river may have different names in different regions of its course. In Tibet, the upper course of the Brahmaputra is known as the Yarlung Tsangpo. After crossing into India through Arunachal Pradesh, it is commonly called the Siang or Dihang in its upper Indian course and then becomes the Brahmaputra in Assam. Thus option D is the intended correct answer. The Indus and Sutlej are also transboundary Himalayan rivers, but they do not undergo this particular Yarlung Tsangpo–Brahmaputra name sequence. Teesta is a separate Himalayan tributary system.
