Explanation
The matching of Indian rivers with their respective tributaries is as follows: (A) Godavari - Manjira: The Manjira (or Manjra) is a principal right-bank tributary of the Godavari [c3][c5][t1]. (B) Krishna - Bhima: The Bhima is one of the major tributaries of the Krishna river, originating in the Sahyadri range [c3][c5][t9]. (C) Yamuna - Chambal: The Chambal is a major right-bank tributary of the Yamuna, originating from the Vindhyan Range and joining it in Uttar Pradesh [c2][t4][t6]. (D) Ganga - Son: The Son is a significant right-bank tributary of the Ganga that originates from the Amarkantak plateau and joins the Ganga near Patna [c1][c2][t5]. Therefore, the correct sequence is A-4, B-3, C-2, D-1, which corresponds to Option 1.
