Correct option is C

Kubha (Kabul River) and Krumu (Kurram River) are rivers mentioned in the Rigveda that are located in present-day Afghanistan. These rivers show the intimate association of the Aryans with the Afghan region.
Gomati (Gomal River), also mentioned in the Rigveda, flows through Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Sutudri (Sutlej River), although mentioned in the Rigveda, is associated with the region of present-day India and Pakistan, not Afghanistan.
Thus, the correct answer is (1) Kubha, (2) Krumu, and (3) Gomati, indicating the close ties between the Aryans and the Afghanistan region during the Vedic period.
