How much revenue did Indian Railways generate through scrap disposal during Special Campaign 6?
- A.Rs 528.49 crore
- B.Rs 600 crore
- C.Rs 628.49 crore
- D.Rs 728.49 crore
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Rs 628.49 crore. During Special Campaign 6, held from 2 to 31 October 2026, Indian Railways earned this amount from the sale of scrap, which is above the target of 600 crore rupees set for the campaign. Option B is the target itself, not the achievement, and this is the trap in the question: the amount realised exceeded the target, so the two figures must not be mixed up. Option A, Rs 528.49 crore, is below the target and would mean the railways fell short, which is not the case. Option D, Rs 728.49 crore, overstates the earnings. A separate 10.43 crore rupees came from disposing of more than 1.50 lakh units of e-waste, so candidates should keep the scrap figure and the e-waste figure apart when answering.
