Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Read the question.
We must give the name of the river Brahmaputra while it flows in Tibet.

Step 2: Where it starts.
The Brahmaputra begins near Lake Manasarovar high up on the Tibetan Plateau.

Step 3: Its name in Tibet.
As it flows eastward across Tibet, the local people call this river the Tsangpo.

Step 4: How its name changes.
When it enters India through Arunachal Pradesh it is called Siang or Dihang, and only in Assam does it take the name Brahmaputra.

Step 5: Match the options.
Dibang, Lohit, and Siyang are names linked to its later Indian course, not to Tibet. Only Tsangpo is the Tibetan name.

Step 6: Conclude.
In Tibet the Brahmaputra is known as the Tsangpo.
