The question is about the river-linking project undertaken by the governments of Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. The correct answer is Option 2, Betwa and Ken. This means the two rivers that are to be linked via this project are Betwa and Ken.
Let`s break down the other options for understanding:
Option 1, Betwa, and Chambal, is incorrect as the Chambal river is not involved in this specific project.
Option 3, Chambal and Son, is also incorrect as neither Chambal nor Son river is linked here.
Finally, Option 4, Ken, and Narmada, is wrong too as Narmada river is not part of this project.
In summary, the correct rivers involved in the linking project by Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh governments are the Betwa and Ken rivers.
