Consider the following pairs about parks and rivers passing through them:

Corbett National Park: Ganga
Kaziranga National Park: Manas
Silent Valley National Park: Kaveri

Which of the above pairs is/are correctly matched?

Select an option to attempt

Explanation

Ramganga River (not the Ganga River) passes through Jim Corbett National Park, located in Uttarakhand state, which is the oldest national park of India.

Kaziranga in Aasam is a vast stretch of tall elephant grass, marshland and dense tropical moist broadleaf forests crisscrossed by four main rivers Brahmaputra, Diphlu, Mora Diphlu and Mora Dhansiri and has numerous small water bodies.

The Kunthipuzha River passes through the Silent Valley National Park, located in the Kerala state.

Thus, no pair is correctly matched.
