The question was posed to me in an online interview.

My question is based upon Classification of Rivers in division Rivers Behaviour, Control and Training of Irrigation Engineering

Answer 1

The correct answer is (b) 2

To explain I would say: Before entering the plains the upper reaches of the rivers flow through the hills, hence the name river in hills. These are further subdivided into a rocky river stage, and boulder river stage.
