Explanation

At Farakka (in West Bengal), Ganga waters are shared with Bangladesh under the India–Bangladesh Ganga Waters Treaty of 1996, which apportions the lean-season flow at Farakka between the two countries for 30 years. Nepal (option A) and Bhutan (option B) are upper riparians with separate treaties (e.g., Mahakali, Kosi/Gandak); Myanmar (option D) shares no Ganga waters. Hence option C.
