The Ganga River begins with the Bhagirathi stream linked to which glacier?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Gangotri Glacier

The direct answer is B: Gangotri Glacier. In school geography, the Bhagirathi is identified as rising from the Gangotri Glacier in Uttarakhand. The Bhagirathi flows onward and meets the Alaknanda at Devprayag. From that meeting point, the combined river is called the Ganga. Therefore the question’s clue “Bhagirathi stream” leads directly to Gangotri Glacier. Option B is correct. Option A, Siachen, is a glacier in the Karakoram region and is not the source named for the Bhagirathi. Option C, Pindari, is associated with a different Himalayan river valley and is not the source of the Bhagirathi. Option D, Milam, is another Himalayan glacier but not the standard source given for the Bhagirathi or Ganga in this lesson. A careful exam cue is: Gangotri Glacier gives Bhagirathi; Bhagirathi and Alaknanda meet at Devprayag; after that the river is called Ganga.
