B
Correct answer
Explanation
The Ganga originates from Gaumukh (cow's mouth) glacier in the Gangotri region of the Uttarkashi district, Uttarakhand. Gaumukh is the snout of the Gangotri glacier where the river emerges. Mansarovar is a sacred lake in Tibet, while Auli and Kedarnath are other locations in Uttarakhand but not the river's source.
