1. Nagarhole National park
2. Papikonda National Park
3. Sathyamangalam Tiger Reserve
4. Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary
Select the correct answer using the code given below:
Explanation
Option 1 is correct: Nagarhole National Park is located in the Kodagu and Mysore districts of Karnataka. The Nagarahole River flows through the park which joins the Kabini River which also is a boundary between Nagarahole and Bandipur National Park.
Option 2 is incorrect: Papikonda National Park is located in the East Godavari and West Godavari districts of Andhra Pradesh. It lies in the Godavari River Basin, not the Cauvery Basin.
Option 3 is correct: Sathyamangalam Tiger Reserve (STR) is located at the confluence region of Western and Eastern Ghats, in the Erode district of the state of Tamil Nadu. In the northern part of Erode district, the Palar river flows and drains into the Cauvery river. The Bhavani River, a major tributary of the Cauvery, flows through this region.
Option 4 is correct: Kabini river, a tributary of the Cauvery river flows through the Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary.
For S2, "Konda" phrase In Papikonda is more associated with Andhra and Telangana state areas which are far away from Cauvery basin, hence likely false, eliminating options A and D.
