Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (a) Only one
Hundru Falls is correctly matched with the Subarnarekha River in the Chota Nagpur Plateau. Dhuandhar Falls is on the Narmada but lies in the Jabalpur (Mahakaushal) region, not Malwa ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhuandhar_Falls)), while Gersoppa (Jog) Falls is in the Western Ghats but is formed by the Sharavati River, not the Netravati ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jog_Falls?utm_source=openai)). Hence only one row is fully correct.
