Correct Answer:
C. Brahmaputra
This question tests knowledge of major transboundary rivers in Asia. The Brahmaputra is the correct answer. Originating in the Himalayas of Tibet, China, where it is known as the Yarlung Tsangpo, it flows through India (where it is called Brahmaputra) and then enters Bangladesh (where it is known as Jamuna) before merging with the Ganges and emptying into the Bay of Bengal.
- The Ganges primarily flows through India and Bangladesh, not China.
- The Yamuna is a major tributary of the Ganges, flowing entirely within India.
- The Indus originates in Tibet (China) and flows through India and Pakistan, but not Bangladesh.
Thus, the Brahmaputra is unique in its journey through all three specified countries.
