What conclusion is correct from the Narmada rising at Amarkantak and flowing westward?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It is a west-flowing peninsular river

The direct answer is B: Narmada is a west-flowing peninsular river. The reasoning has two parts. First, Amarkantak is the source region from which the Narmada rises. Second, the river travels west across central India and reaches the Arabian Sea. It is therefore classified as a west-flowing river of the Peninsular drainage system. A is wrong because an east-flowing river does not match Narmada's direction, even though some peninsular rivers form deltas. C is wrong because Narmada is not a tributary of the Brahmaputra; the Brahmaputra belongs to the northern drainage system. D is wrong because the Bay of Bengal lies to the east, whereas Narmada drains westward into the Arabian Sea. The source and outlet together make B certain. Memory cue: Narmada—Amarkantak to Arabian Sea, westward.
