{'yamuna river': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'following rivers': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'gandak': [2, 1, 4, 2], 'kosi': [5, 1, 1, 2], 'betwa': [2, 0, 5, 1]}

The correct answer is option 1 - 1 only.

The question asks which of the given rivers join the Yamuna river. From the options, we can see that option 1 states that only the Betwa river joins the Yamuna river.

To understand this, let`s look at the individual rivers mentioned in the question:

1. Betwa - This is a river that flows through the states of Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh in India. It is a tributary of the Yamuna river. Therefore, option 1 is correct in stating that the Betwa river joins the Yamuna river.

2. Kosi - The Kosi river is a tributary of the Ganges river. It does not join the Yamuna river. Therefore, option 2 is not correct.

3. Gandak - The Gandak river is also a tributary of the Ganges river and it does not join the Yamuna river. Therefore, option 3 is not correct.

Hence, the correct answer is option 1 - 1 only.
