Where do the Yamuna and Ganga meet?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Prayagraj

Correct answer: A, Prayagraj. The Yamuna is a major tributary of the Ganga. After flowing through the northern plains, it joins the Ganga at Prayagraj in Uttar Pradesh. The meeting point is called the Sangam and is an important example of a river confluence in India. Option B, Amritsar, is in Punjab and is not located at the Yamuna–Ganga meeting point. Option C, Mumbai, is on the western coast beside the Arabian Sea, far from this inland confluence. Option D, Kolkata, is in the lower Ganga basin near the deltaic region, but the Yamuna has already joined the Ganga much farther upstream at Prayagraj. A useful memory cue is “Yamuna meets Ganga at Prayagraj.” Do not confuse this with Devprayag, where the Bhagirathi and Alaknanda meet and the Ganga is formed.
