Q1Which of the following rivers is the largest tributary of the Indus River?

A The Satluj
B The Beas
C The Chenab
D The Jhelum
Explanation

The Chenab is treated as the largest tributary of the Indus system among the given choices, especially in terms of its major Himalayan catchment and combined flow contribution after the Chandra and Bhaga streams meet. The Satluj is a very important Indus tributary but is not the expected largest answer here. The Beas is shorter and joins the Satluj before the combined flow moves towards the Indus system. The Jhelum is another western river of the system, but it is smaller than the Chenab in the standard geography comparison used in such exams.
