Last Updated:
This question examines an important river-or-lake fact: “Which river forms the boundary between Maharashtra and Goa?” The correct answer is Terekhol. The Terekhol River (Tiracol) forms the boundary between Maharashtra (Sindhudurg district) and Goa at the northern tip of Goa. The Chapora, Mandovi, Zuari, and Sal are rivers that flow within Goa. The Terekhol Fort is located at the river's mouth. Rivers and lakes are central components of the hydrological cycle and physical geography. A river system includes its source, tributaries, distributaries, drainage basin, watershed, channel, floodplain, delta or estuary and final outlet. River behaviour depends on relief, geology, rainfall, snowmelt, sediment load, vegetation and human intervention.
