Which river, like Tapi, flows westwards and is associated with the Satpura region?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Narmada

Narmada is a major west-flowing river of peninsular India, as is the Tapi. Most large peninsular rivers flow eastward into the Bay of Bengal, but Narmada and Tapi flow westward into the Arabian Sea. This unusual direction is related to their courses through rift valleys and the slope of the land.

Narmada rises near Amarkantak in Madhya Pradesh and flows west between the Vindhya Range to the north and the Satpura Range to the south before reaching the Arabian Sea. Kaveri and Godavari flow generally eastward, while Damodar belongs to the eastern drainage system. Therefore, option A, Narmada, is correct.
