Which of the following is an east flowing river of the Peninsula?

A. Tapi

B. Narmada

C. Mahanadi

D. None of the above

Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Mahanadi is an east flowing river of the Peninsula. Major peninsular rivers flow from west to east due to the gradient of land but narmada and tapi flows in the opposite direction because they do not flow on the plateau surface but in rift valleys and these valleys happen to have an opposite gradient.
