Discussion
Dhola Sadiya Bridge recently inaugurated by the Prime Minister Sh. Narendra Modi is built on which of the following rivers?
Answer: B
The Dhola-Sadiya Bridge is built over the Lohit.
The bridge, about 9.15 km long and named the Bhupen Hazarika Setu, was opened by the Prime Minister on 26 May 2017. It crosses the Lohit river, a major tributary that joins the Siang and Dibang to form the Brahmaputra, and links Assam with eastern Arunachal Pradesh.
The Brahmaputra is the obvious distractor, since the crossing lies in the upper Brahmaputra valley, but the channel bridged is the Lohit. The Barak flows through southern Assam, and the Teesta through Sikkim and north Bengal.
