Official Key
Which one of the following statement is NOT correct?
Explanation
Option B is the incorrect statement. The Jamshedpur Steel Plant (TISCO), India's first private integrated steel plant, is located at the confluence of the Subarnarekha and Kharkai rivers in Jharkhand. It does not lie on the confluence of the Damodar and Barakar rivers.
The other statements are geographically accurate:
- Bokaro Steel Plant: Situated in Jharkhand, it is indeed located within the Damodar river basin.
- Salem Steel Plant: Located in Tamil Nadu, this plant is situated near the banks of the Kaveri River.
- Bhilai Steel Plant: Located in Chhattisgarh, it primarily obtains its water supply from the Tandula reservoir (Tandula Dam) built on the Tandula River.
Since the question asks for the statement that is NOT correct, Option B is the right answer.
