Explanation

The correct matching of canals to their respective source rivers is as follows:

  • Upper Bari Doab Canal (A-4): It originates from the Ravi river at Madhopur, Punjab.
  • Sirhind Canal (B-1): It is one of the oldest canal systems in India, taking off from the Sutlej river at the Ropar headworks.
  • Gurgaon Canal (C-2): This canal draws water from the Yamuna river at the Okhla Barrage to provide irrigation to parts of Haryana and Rajasthan.
  • Indira Gandhi Canal (D-3): One of the largest canal projects in India, it derives its water from the Sutlej, Ravi, and Beas rivers. It starts from the Harike Barrage at the confluence of the Sutlej and Beas rivers, and also utilizes water diverted from the Ravi via the Ravi-Beas link.

Therefore, the correct sequence is 4-1-2-3.
