What is the most careful point while linking Hooghly with the Ganga system?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It is a distributary channel of the Ganga delta

The Hooghly, also called the Bhagirathi-Hooghly channel, is a distributary in the lower deltaic region of the Ganga. A distributary branches away from the main river and carries water towards the delta, whereas a tributary joins the main river. Therefore, Hooghly should not be identified as a tributary of the Ganga. Exam tip: a river branch that leaves the main channel in a delta is a distributary.
