2. B

   3 and 4

   3 and 4. Incorrect. Pair 3 (Parushni : Ravi) is correct, but pair 4 is not: the Beas corresponds to Vipasha/Vipas, not Yavyavati.

   3 only. Correct. Among the four pairs, only Parushni–Ravi is the standard ancient–modern match.

   4 only. Incorrect. Yavyavati : Beas is not the accepted identification used in the standard Rigvedic river map.

Summary. Official key is (c): only pair 3 (Parushni : Ravi) is correctly matched; the other three pairs misuse the standard Vitasta–Jhelum, Asikni–Chenab and Vipasha–Beas equations.
