Which Water Transport in India term is correctly identified by “Champakara and Udyogmandal canals are associated components” and “it passes through a region of canals and backwaters”?

Correct Answer: Option C — National Waterway 3. National Waterway 3 is correct because it is Champakara and Udyogmandal canals are associated components. National Waterway 3 is also specifically associated with it passes through a region of canals and backwaters. Two additional identifying facts are that National Waterway 3 is Champakara and Udyogmandal canals are associated components and National Waterway 3 is associated with it passes through a region of canals and backwaters. Why the other options are incorrect: • Option A — Coastal Shipping: Coastal Shipping is ports and coastal terminals are essential nodes. It is incorrect here because its separate identifying association is it differs from inland navigation on rivers and canals. • Option B — Inland Waterways Authority of India: Inland Waterways Authority of India is its headquarters is at Noida. It is incorrect here because its separate identifying association is it develops navigation channels, terminals and related inland-waterway infrastructure. • Option D — National Waterway 1: National Waterway 1 is Varanasi, Sahibganj and Haldia have important multimodal-terminal associations. It is incorrect here because its separate identifying association is the Jal Marg Vikas Project is associated with capacity improvement on this route. Exam Takeaway: Connect National Waterway 3 with “Champakara and Udyogmandal canals are associated components” and “it passes through a region of canals and backwaters”.
