India has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with China under the International Cooperation on Brahmaputra and Sutlej rivers.

The Brahmaputra river originates in Tibet, China and flows through India and Bangladesh before emptying into the Bay of Bengal. The Sutlej river also originates in Tibet and flows through India and Pakistan.

The MoU between India and China aims to enhance cooperation between the two countries on matters related to sharing hydrological information regarding the Brahmaputra and Sutlej rivers. This includes data on water levels, discharge, and rainfall in the rivers.

It is significant for India and China to work together on river management as it affects the water resources and livelihoods in both countries. By sharing hydrological data, the two countries can have a better understanding of the rivers` flow patterns and plan accordingly for water management and disaster mitigation.

Alert - The correct answer should be option 2 (China).
