D) Sutlej, and Beas

Answer 1

Hint:
The venture of the Indira Gandhi Canal is the greatest water system framework or task of the world to convey water systems to semi-dry and dry districts of Rajasthan. It also gives uplifting to its economy and economic development.

Complete answer:
It includes Rajasthan Feeder clearing out from the Harike bombardment along the Sutlej River near its convergence with the Beas River in Punjab and its distributaries. The Rajasthan Feeder expands for 204 km, the first 167 km of which lies in Punjab and Haryana and the rest 37 km in Rajasthan. It is entirely banded masonry canal which is not fully utilized for irrigation. It provides the Rajasthan Main Canal which is 445 km long and lies completely in Rajasthan about 40-64 km away from the international border with Pakistan. The principal stage involves the development of the full length of the Rajasthan Feeder, 189 km long Rajasthan Main and around 3,123 km long distributaries.
The Indira Gandhi Canal, when finalized, would deliver irrigation to about $12.58$ lakh hectares of land in Ganganagar district of Rajasthan.
Hence, from the above description, it is clear that Indira Gandhi canal draws water from Sutlej and head.

Thus, option (D) is correct.

Note:
Besides giving water for agriculture, the canal will replenish drinking water to hundreds of people in the arid areas.
As the next or the 2nd stage of work on the canal progresses quickly, there is hope that it will strengthen the living precepts of the people of the state.
