Correct answer: (a) Only one
Explanation
- A
Only one
Only one. Hundru on the Subarnarekha in Chota Nagpur is the clean row.
- B
Only two
Only two. Dhuandhar is Narmada but in the Satpura/Marble Rocks belt, not Malwa as labelled; Gersoppa is Sharavati, not Netravati.
- C
All three
All three. Two rows are mismatches.
- D
None
None. Hundru is correctly matched.
Summary. Official key is (a) only one. Hundru Falls: Subarnarekha, Chota Nagpur — correct. Dhuandhar is on the Narmada at Bhedaghat (Jabalpur), not in the Malwa region as the table says. Jog/Gersoppa is on the Sharavati in the Western Ghats, not the Netravati. So only row 2 matches.
