खालीलपैकी कोणत्या पाच नद्यांनी मिळून पंचगंगा नदी बनली आहे ?
अ. कुंभी, कासारी
ब. वारणा, येरळा, कडवी
क. दुधगंगा, वेदगंगा
ड. भोजावती, तुळशी, सरस्वती

The correct answer is Option A (अ आणि ड).

Key Points:
• The key concept is the tributary network of the Panchganga River in Kolhapur.
• The Panchganga river is a major tributary of the Krishna river, flowing through Kolhapur.
• True to its name, it is formed by the confluence of five rivers (Panch = five, Ganga = river). The five rivers are Kumbhi, Kasari, Bhogawati, Tulsi, and the mythical/underground Saraswati.
• Groups A (Kumbhi, Kasari) and D (Bhogawati, Tulsi, Saraswati) together correctly list all the five rivers. Varna, Dudhganga, and Vedganga are separate independent tributaries of the Krishna river.
• Key Takeaway: The Panchganga river is formed by 5 rivers: Kumbhi, Kasari, Bhogawati, Tulsi, and Saraswati.
