The correct answer is option 1 - 1, 2, 3 and 4.

The Brahmaputra is one of the major rivers in India and it has several principal tributaries. Let`s analyze each option to understand which ones are the tributaries of the Brahmaputra.

Option 1 includes all four given options - Manas, Dhansiri, Subansiri, and Pagladira. This means that all these rivers are indeed principal tributaries of the Brahmaputra.

Option 2 includes only options 1, 2, and 4. This means it does not include the Subansiri river, which is incorrect because the Subansiri is indeed a principal tributary of the Brahmaputra.

Option 3 includes only options 2 and 3. This means it does not include the Manas and Pagladira rivers, which is incorrect because both of them are principal tributaries of the Brahmaputra.

Option 4 includes only options 1 and 3. This means it does not include the Dhansiri and Pagladira rivers, which is incorrect because both of them are principal tributaries of the Brahmaputra.
