  • A Indus
  • B Ganges
  • C Yamuna
  • D Godavari
Correct Answer: Option A

Explanation

The development of early Hinduism and the composition of the Vedas, which were primarily hymns and rituals addressed to the gods, characterised the Vedic period. The Indus Valley Civilization, which existed concurrently with the early Vedic period, was based in the Indus River valley. The sacred rivers of the Ganges and Yamuna were mentioned in Vedic literature. The Godavari river, which flows through central India, was not mentioned in the early Vedic texts but was later celebrated in Hindu texts.
