The given statements are incorrect and the correct answer is option 'D' i.e., neither 1 nor 2. Let's understand why:
1. There are no east flowing rivers in Kerala:
This statement is incorrect. Kerala has several east-flowing rivers such as Bharathapuzha, Periyar, Pamba, Chalakkudy, Kallada, etc. These rivers originate from the Western Ghats and flow towards the east and drain into the Arabian Sea.
2. There are no west flowing rivers in Madhya Pradesh:
This statement is also incorrect. Madhya Pradesh has several west-flowing rivers such as Narmada, Tapti, Mahi, Sabarmati, Shipra, etc. These rivers originate from the Vindhya and Satpura ranges and flow towards the west and drain into the Arabian Sea or the Gulf of Khambhat.
Therefore, neither statement 1 nor statement 2 is correct. It is important to have accurate information about such geographical features as they play a crucial role in the socio-economic development of a region.
