With reference to the water level in the Narmada River crossing the danger mark due to release from the Sardar Sarovar Dam, consider the following statements: Madhya Pradesh gets the largest share of water from the river. The dam is on the Gujarat-Maharashtra border. Which of the above statements is/are correct?

The correct answer is: D. Both 1 and 2 are correct.

Madhya Pradesh gets the largest share of water from the Narmada River. The dam is on the Gujarat-Maharashtra border.

The Narmada River is a major river in central India. It originates in the Amarkantak hills of Madhya Pradesh and flows through the states of Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, and Maharashtra. The river is a major source of water for irrigation, drinking water, and hydroelectric power.

The Sardar Sarovar Dam is a large dam on the Narmada River. It is located in Gujarat, near the border with Maharashtra. The dam was built to provide irrigation water for the Kutch and Saurashtra regions of Gujarat, and to generate hydroelectric power.

The dam has been controversial since its construction. Environmentalists have argued that the dam has caused the displacement of thousands of people and has damaged the environment. However, the government of Gujarat has defended the dam, arguing that it is essential for the development of the state.

In recent years, the water level in the Narmada River has been rising due to heavy rains. The Sardar Sarovar Dam has been releasing water to prevent flooding. The release of water from the dam has caused the water level in the river to cross the danger mark in some areas.

The following are the statements:

1. Madhya Pradesh gets the largest share of water from the river.
2. The dam is on the Gujarat-Maharashtra border.

Both statements are correct. Madhya Pradesh gets the largest share of water from the Narmada River. The dam is on the Gujarat-Maharashtra border.
