The correct answer is: a) Godavari.

The Nagarjuna Sagar Dam is a major multipurpose project on the Godavari River in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. It is the second largest dam in India, after the Bhakra Dam. The dam was constructed between 1955 and 1969 and is named after the 16th-century Hindu saint Nagarjuna.

The dam has a number of purposes, including irrigation, flood control, power generation, and water supply. It is also a major tourist attraction.
