Correct option is B

The correct answer is (b) Musi.
· Hyderabad is located on the banks of the Musi River in the Indian state of Telangana.
· The Musi River flows through Hyderabad and historically divided the old city and the new city areas.
· The city’s famous landmark, the Charminar, was constructed near the banks of the Musi River.
· Over time, Hyderabad has expanded beyond the riverbanks, but the Musi remains an important geographical feature of the city.
Information Booster:
· The Musi River is a tributary of the Krishna River.
· Hyderabad’s historic core developed around the Musi River, which provided water resources in the early days of the city.
· The Osman Sagar and Himayat Sagar reservoirs on the Musi River help supply water to Hyderabad and also act as flood control mechanisms.
Additional Knowledge:
· Narmada: This river flows through central India, including Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat, but not Hyderabad.
· Chambal: A tributary of the Yamuna River, the Chambal flows through Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh, not near Hyderabad.
· Ganga: The Ganga is one of India's major rivers, flowing through northern India, but it is not associated with Hyderabad.
