Explanation

The textbook explicitly mentions Hirakud Dam on Mahanadi and Sardar Sarovar Dam on Narmada. Rana Pratap Sagar is a well-known dam on the Chambal River (Rajasthan), and Salal Dam is built on the Chenab River (J&K). Remember these river-dam pairs as they are frequently asked in board exams.
