Detailed Solution

The given statement is true.
A few of the Indus river's tributaries are the Ravi, Beas, Jhelum, Chenab, and Satluj.
The Indus River spans South and Central Asia's border with North Asia via the Himalayas. It passes through three nations—China, India, and Pakistan—over 3180 kilometres. The river was once referred to as "Sidhu" in Sanskrit and "Hindu" by the Persians due to its proximity to the Hindu Kush mountains. Punjab translates as "country of the five rivers." This was set aside for the Ravi, Beas, Jhelum, Chenab, and Sutlej, five Indus River tributaries. All of these tributaries join the Indus, which empties into the Arabian Sea at the end. It is Pakistan's longest river. The river Indus, which gave India its name, was home to one of history's greatest civilizations, the Indus valley civilization.
