MCQ practice · SSC Bangladesh and Global Studies Board questions · Chapter 5: The Rivers of Bangladesh and the Natural Resources
Which river has its source in Bangladesh?
Think it through first, then pick an option.
- a Sangu
- b Naf
- c Matamuhuri
- d Meghna
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: c Matamuhuri
The Matamuhuri rises in the Maiver hills of Lama, inside Bangladesh; the Sangu comes from the Arakan hills.
Why the other options are wrong
- a Sangu: The Sangu rises in the northern Arakan hills and enters through Thanchi; it is 294 km long. The answer here is Matamuhuri.
- b Naf: The Naf is the border river; the book does not place its source inside Bangladesh, but it does so for the Matamuhuri.
- d Meghna: The Meghna's stream comes from the Barak of Assam; its source is not in Bangladesh.
