Correct Answer: Arunachal Pradesh and Assam


Solution : The correct answer is Arunachal Pradesh and Assam .

The Lohit River, named after the Assamese term "Lohit", meaning blood, is a river flowing through both China and India. Known as Zayul Chu by the Tibetans and Tellu by the Mishmis, it eventually merges with the Brahmaputra River in the state of Assam. Dihing is a substantial tributary of the Brahmaputra River, extending about 380 kilometres (240 miles) in length. Originating at an altitude of 2,375 meters above sea level in the Eastern Himalayas, specifically the Patkai Hills, this river flows through Arunachal Pradesh.
