Solution
The correct option is C Haridwar.
Haridwar.
The headwaters of the Ganga, called the 'Bhagirathi' is fed by the Gangotri Glacier and joined by the Alaknanda at Devaprayag in Uttarakhand. At Haridwar the Ganga emerges from the mountains on to the plains. The main tributaries, which come from the peninsular uplands, are the Chambal, the Betwa and the Son.
