{'tributaries': [0, 0, 2, 5], 'rivers': [3, 2, 8, 8], 'ganga': [11, 1, 3, 3], 'krishna': [0, 0, 0, 3], 'godavari': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'bhima': [2, 0, 2, 3]}

The question asks us to identify the pair of rivers and their tributaries that is not correctly matched. Let`s dissect each option to better understand the correct answer.

Option 1: Godavari and Indravati. The Godavari river is indeed connected to the Indravati river. So, option 1 is correctly matched.

Option 2: Ganga and Penganga. The Ganga is a major river in northern India, but the Penganga river is not its tributary. The correct answer is option 2 because it is not correctly matched.

Option 3: Krishna and Bhima. The Krishna river is connected to the Bhima river. So, option 3 is correctly matched.

Option 4: Luni and Sukri. The Luni river is indeed connected to the Sukri river. So, option 4 is correctly matched.

In conclusion, options 1, 3, and 4 are correctly matched pairs of rivers and tributaries. However, option 2 is not correctly matched, making it the correct answer.
