Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: A
Explanation

The correct matching of dams to their respective states is as follows: Hirakud Dam is located in Odisha on the Mahanadi River and is recognized as the longest earthen dam in the world [3][4]. Panchet Dam, part of the Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC), is situated in the Dhanbad district of Jharkhand across the Damodar River [1][3]. The Kosi project is a major multipurpose river valley project located in Bihar near the Nepal border, primarily for flood control and irrigation [1]. The Ukai Dam, also known as Vallabh Sagar, is the second-largest reservoir in Gujarat and is built across the Tapi River [2][3]. Therefore, the correct sequence is A-3 (Hirakud-Odisha), B-4 (Panchet-Jharkhand), C-2 (Kosi-Bihar), and D-1 (Ukai-Gujarat), which corresponds to option 1.
