Which one of the following rivers is also known by the name of "Dihang" in Northeast India ?
A.Dikhow
B.Brahmaputra✓ Correct
C.Subansiri
D.Teesta
Explanation
The Brahmaputra River, after entering Arunachal Pradesh from Tibet (where it is called Tsangpo), is locally known as 'Siang' or 'Dihang' before it meets the Lohit and Dibang in Assam to take the name Brahmaputra. Dikhow, Subansiri and Teesta are tributaries/separate rivers and are not called Dihang. Hence the correct answer is Brahmaputra.
