The Salal hydroelectric project is constructed on the Chenab river in the Reasi district of Jammu and Kashmir. The Rana Pratap Sagar project is a multipurpose dam built across the Chambal river in the Chittorgarh district of Rajasthan. Finally, the Tehri project, known as the highest dam in India, is situated on the Bhagirathi river in Uttarakhand [1]. Therefore, the correct sequence for A-B-C-D is 3-4-1-2, which corresponds to Option 4. These projects are vital for irrigation, flood control, and power generation across their respective regions.
