River Basins of Afghanistan
A new study has revealed interesting insights about water in Afghanistan, which has suffered recurrent droughts since the 1990s.
Afghanistan is multi-ethnic landlocked country located in Central Asia with Iran to the west and Pakistan to the east.
Physiographic region- The central highlands is actually a part of the Himalayan chain including the main Hindu Kush range.
Major pass- Shebar pass, Khyber pass (It leads to Indian subcontinent)
Drinage system- It is enclosed within the country, only the rivers in the east reach the Arabian Sea.
The researchers divided Afghanistan into five river basins and found that two of the five are the major water sources for the country.
Kabul river is the largest drainage system in the south-eastern region.
The river is also known as Cophen, it originates in the Paghman Range and flows eastward to join the Indus river in Pakistan.
The Panj-Amu River Basin is part of the Amu Darya, which is the largest river in Central Asia.
Amu Darya- It is also known as the Oxus River, and one of the longest rivers in Central Asia that originates in Pamir mountains and flows into Aral sea.
Panj river- It is one of the major tributaries of the Amu Darya that originates in the Pamir Mountains, near the borders of Afghanistan, Tajikistan, and China.
Hence option 3rd is correct.
