Thein
Correct Answer:
D. Thein
Explanation:
The correct answer is Thein (also known as the Ranjit Sagar Dam).
Located on the border of Jammu and Kashmir and Punjab, the Thein Dam is a major hydroelectric project built on the Ravi River. Completed in 2001, it is situated upstream from the Madhopur Headworks and the recently completed Shahpur Kandi barrage. While the other options represent significant Indian dams, they are located on different rivers: the Ukai Dam is on the Tapti River, Baglihar is on the Chenab, and the Pong Dam (Maharana Pratap Sagar) is on the Beas River.
