- A.72
- B.80
- C.86
- D.94
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 86. During August 2026 fourteen Amrit Bharat services were converted from special trains into regular trains, and that conversion took the total number of Amrit Bharat services to this figure. The services connect Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and other important regions of the country. Among the routes named are Subedarganj to Lokmanya Tilak Terminus, Gorakhpur to Bandra Terminus, Gorakhpur to Delhi Junction, Ahmedabad to Bhagalpur, Prayagraj Junction to Udhna Junction and Dhanbad to Coimbatore. The Ahmedabad to Bhagalpur link joins Gujarat with Bihar, while the Dhanbad to Coimbatore service links eastern India with southern India. Options A, B and D give totals that the release does not support. Remember the count of services added and the running total together.
