Which of the following groups of rivers have their source of origin in Tibet?

  • A.Brahmaputra, Ganges and Sutlej
  • B.Ganges, Sutlej and Yamuna
  • C.Brahmaputra, Indus and Sutlej
  • D.Chenab, Ravi and Sutlej

Answer: C

The Brahmaputra, Indus and Sutlej rise in Tibet.

All three originate near Lake Mansarovar and Mount Kailash and then cut through the Himalayas, so they are older than the mountains they cross - antecedent rivers that kept their courses as the range rose around them.
