MCQ practice · SSC Bangladesh and Global Studies Board questions · Chapter 5: The Rivers of Bangladesh and the Natural Resources
On the bank of which river is the main sea port of Bangladesh situated?
Think it through first, then pick an option.
- a Karnaphuli
- b Posur
- c Sangu
- d Rupsha
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: a Karnaphuli
Chattogram, the main sea port of Bangladesh, stands on the bank of the Karnaphuli.
Why the other options are wrong
- b Posur: The Posur is the course of the Bhairab or Rupsha south of Khulna, reaching the sea through the Sundarbans; it is the ships' way into Mongla port. The answer here is Karnaphuli.
- c Sangu: The Sangu rises in the northern Arakan hills and enters through Thanchi; it is 294 km long. The answer here is Karnaphuli.
- d Rupsha: The Rupsha (Bhairab) flows south of Khulna; further south it falls into the sea as the Posur. The answer here is Karnaphuli.
