-

Correct Answer:
A. Dhola-Sadiya Bridge
Explanation:
The correct answer is Dhola-Sadiya Bridge.
Also known as the Bhupen Hazarika Setu, the Dhola-Sadiya Bridge is a major beam bridge in India that spans the Lohit River, a primary tributary of the Brahmaputra River. Connecting the states of Assam and Arunachal Pradesh, it was inaugurated in 2017 and is one of the longest bridges over water in the country. Other notable bridges crossing the main Brahmaputra River include the Bogibeel Bridge, Saraighat Bridge, Kolia Bhomora Setu, and Naranarayan Setu. In contrast, the Howrah Bridge is located in West Bengal over the Hooghly River, the Mahatma Gandhi Setu spans the Ganges in Bihar, and the Pamban Bridge connects mainland India to Pamban Island in Tamil Nadu.
