Correct Answer :

Solution
The Beas River originates at a height of 4,361 meters from Beas Kund, enters the plains at Talwara in Hoshiarpur district, and the Pandoh Dam is constructed over it. However, the Soan and Chitti Bein rivers are tributaries of the Satluj River, not the Beas River, which makes statement (4) incorrect.
