A
1 only
B
2 and 3 only
Correct Answer
C
1 and 3 only
D
1, 2 and 3
Explanation
The Lohit and Subansiri are major tributaries of the Brahmaputra that flow through Arunachal Pradesh, making option (b) correct. Option (d) is the most tempting error, but the Barak river originates in the Manipur Hills and flows through Manipur, Mizoram, and Assam, bypassing Arunachal Pradesh entirely. This question tests the core concept of the drainage systems and specific geographical courses of North-Eastern Indian rivers.
