- A.1500 crore rupees
- B.2500 crore rupees
- C.3500 crore rupees
- D.4500 crore rupees
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 3500 crore rupees. While laying the foundation stone of the Guntur road over bridge, the Minister of State for Railways said that apart from bridges over and under the tracks, 74 railway stations in Andhra Pradesh are being rebuilt with modern, world-class facilities at an investment of 3500 crore rupees. Option A, option B and option D give amounts that were not announced for this station upgrade programme in the state. The figure is worth remembering along with the details of the bridge itself, namely its length of 668 metres, its sanctioned cost of 108 crore rupees and the 2.9 acres of land it needs, because station modernisation in a named state is a common question in railway and staff selection examinations.
