C Correct answer
Explanation

When a city is situated along the edge or bank of a river, 'on' is the standard preposition - Nander lies on the banks of the Godavari. 'In' (A) suggests containment within (used for regions like 'in the valley'). 'At' (B) is for precise points (like 'at the confluence'). 'Of' (D) indicates possession/belonging, not location. 'On the banks' is fixed collocation meaning 'along the side'.
