Detailed Solution

According to the above question, both the assertion and reason are correct.
In Tibet, the river carries a smaller volume of water and less silt because it is a cold and dry area. When a river is in its youth stage, it travels through a unique path and, while flowing at speed, has less water volume. There are fewer slits, and another reason for carrying fewer slits is the cold temperature in Tibet. In contrast, when a river enters India, it is in its Mature stage, where its speed has increased, and the slit capacity is also large. In India, it passes through a region of low rainfall.
Hence Both (A) and (R) are true, and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
