Which of the following rivers does not form any delta at its mouth ?
ACauvery
BMahanadi
CGodavari
DTapti

correct answer is: d
Explanation: Among the given options, the Tapti River does not form a delta at its mouth. Deltas are typically formed when rivers deposit sediment as they slow down upon approaching a body of water. The Tapti River flows westward into the Arabian Sea, where the conditions are less conducive for delta formation compared to the east-flowing rivers like the Cauvery, Mahanadi, and Godavari, which form deltas in the Bay of Bengal.

  • Option a (Cauvery): Forms a delta in the Bay of Bengal.
  • Option b (Mahanadi): Forms a delta in the Bay of Bengal.
  • Option c (Godavari): Forms a delta in the Bay of Bengal.
  • Option d (Tapti): Does not form a delta as it flows into the Arabian Sea.
