AI explanation
The Godavari River, one of India's largest rivers (sometimes called the 'Ganga of the South'), originates at Trimbakeshwar near Nashik in Maharashtra, close to the Western Ghats, and flows southeast across the Deccan Plateau to the Bay of Bengal. Mahabaleshwar is the well-known source of the Krishna River, not the Godavari, making it a common distractor in Indian geography quizzes. Bias Kund and Kasi (Varanasi) are unrelated to either river's origin, leaving Trimbakeshwar as the correct source.
