DNarmada valley

Answer:

D. Narmada valley

Read Explanation:

  • The Narmada River flows through a rift valley in India, a geological formation where the Earth's tectonic plates have moved apart. This valley is bordered by the Vindhya Range to the north and the Satpura Range to the south. Other rivers that flow through rift valleys in India include the Tapi and Damodar rivers. In contrast, the Indus, Brahmaputra, and Kashmir valleys are not typically classified as rift valleys. The Indus and Brahmaputra rivers flow through wide alluvial plains, and the Kashmir Valley is an intermontane valley formed by folding and faulting as a result of the collision between the Indian and Eurasian plates.
