The correct answer is Statements (a) and (b) are correct. Explanation & Key Takeaways: Jhelum • The Jhelum has its source in spring at Verinag in the south-eastern part of the Kashmir Valley. • It flows northwards into Wular Lake (the north-western part of Kashmir Valley). From Wular Lake, it changes its course southwards. At Baramulla, the river enters a gorge in the hills. Hence, Statement a is correct. • The river forms a steep-sided narrow gorge through Pir Panjal Range below Baramula. • At Muzaffarabad, the river takes a sharp hairpin bend southward. • Thereafter, it forms the India-Pakistan boundary for 170 km and emerges at the Potwar Plateau near Mirpur. • After flowing through the spurs of the Salt Range it debouches (emerges from a confined space into a wide, open area) on the plains near the city of Jhelum. • It joins the Chenab at Trimmu. • The river is navigable for about 160 km out of a total length of 724 km. Satluj • It is an ancient river that is one of the five rivers that give Punjab its name. • It is one of the tributaries of the Indus River. Hence, Statement b is correct. • It enters India near Shipki La Pass, passing through numerous Himalayan valleys before merging with the Beas River in Punjab, which then merges with the Chenab in Pakistan before landing on the Indus. • Sutudri was the name given to the Sutlej in the Vedic era.
