On reaching the Namcha Barwa (7757 m), which river takes a ‘U’ turn and enters India in Arunachal Pradesh through a gaurge and here it is called the Dihang ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → Brahmaputra
Flowing east through Tibet as the Tsangpo, the river meets the peak of Namcha Barwa and swings round it in a great U-turn, cutting a deep gorge before entering Arunachal Pradesh, where it is known as the Dihang.
The Dihang is joined by the Dibang and the Lohit in Assam and from there the united stream is called the Brahmaputra.
