    Answer : Option C

    Explanation :

    Narmada and Tapti are the west-flowing rivers of southern Indian which flow into Arabian Sea. The two major west flowing rivers are the Narmada and the Tapi. This exceptional behavior is because these rivers didn’t form valleys and instead they flow through faults (linear rift, rift valley, trough) created due to the bending of the northern peninsula during the formation process of Himalayas.
