Q1Gandhi Sagar Dam is built on which of the following rivers?
Explanation
Gandhi Sagar Dam is part of the Chambal Valley project and is located on the Chambal River. The Narmada is associated with major projects such as Sardar Sarovar and Indira Sagar, not Gandhi Sagar. The Sabarmati flows mainly through Rajasthan and Gujarat and is not linked with this dam. The Manas is a separate river system and does not host Gandhi Sagar Dam. Therefore, the river asked in the question is Chambal.
