Which river is also called Ganga of South?
Answer: C
The key's answer is the Cauvery.
The Cauvery (Kaveri), which rises at Talakaveri in Karnataka and flows through Tamil Nadu to the Bay of Bengal, is revered as the Dakshina Ganga, the Ganga of the South, for its sacred standing in the south.
The epithet is not unique: the Godavari, the longest river of peninsular India, is also widely called the Dakshin Ganga, so the Godavari option is a near miss rather than a plain error. The Krishna is not given the name. The key follows the reading that gives it to the Cauvery.
