Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Exp. [d] The Godavari (1465 km) is the second longest river of India after the Ganga. It rises near Trimbak in the Nasik district of Maharashtra. Its area spreads over 312812 sq. km (49% in Maharashtra, 20% in Madhya Pradesh, 23% in Andhra Pradesh). Its principal tributaries include Puma, Pravava, Manjira, Penganga, Wainganga, Wardha, Pranahita, Indravati, Maner, Pench and Sebari. Vamsadhara is an independent river in Odisha which originates from Nayagarh hills and fells into Bay of Bengal. Pennar (Penneru) river rises from Nandi hills in Karnataka. It is not a tributary of Godavari river. Hence, option is correct.
