The new Bhuj-Barauni Amrit Bharat Express will pass through all of the following states except
- A.Rajasthan
- B.Uttar Pradesh
- C.Maharashtra
- D.Bihar
Correct answer
C. Maharashtra
Explanation
The correct answer is Maharashtra. The new service links Gujarat, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, and Maharashtra does not figure on the route at all. The train starts from Bhuj in the Kutch region of Gujarat, touches Samakhiali and Ahmedabad, moves through Ratlam and then into Rajasthan at Kota, Sawai Madhopur, Gangapur City and Bharatpur, enters Uttar Pradesh at Mathura and continues through Hathras, Bareilly, Izzatnagar, Pilibhit, Lakhimpur, Gonda and Gorakhpur before reaching Bihar at Siwan, Chhapra, Hajipur, Muzaffarpur and Samastipur on its way to Barauni. Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar are therefore all on the route, which rules out options A, B and D. Memorising the terminals and the four states is usually enough for objective questions on a new train service.

Practice Questions
What distance will the new tri-weekly Amrit Bharat Express between Bhuj and Barauni cover?
- A.1,532 km
- B.2,532 km
- C.3,252 km
- D.2,352 km
Show answer
Correct answer: B. 2,532 km
Explanation
The correct answer is 2,532 km. The new service approved by Indian Railways connects Bhuj in Gujarat with Barauni in Bihar and covers that distance while passing through Gujarat, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, which makes it one of the longer runs given to a train of the Amrit Bharat class. The train runs as number 19427 from Bhuj, departing at 17:30 and reaching Barauni at 04:05, and as number 19428 in the return direction, leaving Barauni at 23:55 and arriving at Bhuj at 13:15. The other three options are near-miss figures of the kind an examiner places to catch a candidate who half remembers the number, since the digits are the same but rearranged. Note also that the service is tri-weekly, running three days a week in each direction rather than daily.
The Virangana Lakshmibai Jhansi-Agra Cantt Express has been extended up to which station?
- A.Gwalior
- B.Mathura
- C.Bharatpur
- D.Hathras
Show answer
Correct answer: B. Mathura
Explanation
The correct answer is Mathura. Indian Railways approved the extension of trains 11901 and 11902 up to Mathura station, which lifts the run of the service from 217 km to 270 km and brings Jhansi, Agra and Mathura together on one train. On the newly added stretch, commercial halts have been given at Raja ki Mandi, Runkuta, Deen Dayal Dham and Baad, so passengers at these four stations gain a service they did not have earlier. Gwalior lies on the other side of Jhansi on the Delhi-Bhopal route and is not part of this extension, so option A is wrong. Bharatpur and Hathras are stations on the route of the new Bhuj-Barauni Amrit Bharat Express and belong to a separate announcement, which is why options C and D are wrong here.
How much revenue did DEPwD and its organisations generate during Special Campaign 5.0?
- A.11,972 rupees
- B.15,588 rupees
- C.14,47,619 rupees
- D.64,00,000 rupees
Show answer
Correct answer: C. 14,47,619 rupees
Explanation
The correct answer is 14,47,619 rupees. The money came from the disposal of files, obsolete material and scrap during the month-long drive held from 2 to 31 October 2025. The other options are the campaign's remaining figures moved into the wrong place, which is how such questions are usually framed. Option A is the number of physical files and documents that were digitised and weeded out during that campaign. Option B is the office space, measured in square feet, that was freed for use. Option D inflates the number of cleanliness drives, which stood at 64, into a sum of money. A candidate should therefore memorise the four results of Special Campaign 5.0 together with the unit attached to each of them, because the unit is what the examiner tests.
What are the dates of the implementation phase of Special Campaign 6.0?
- A.16 to 30 September 2026
- B.2 to 31 October 2026
- C.1 to 30 November 2026
- D.2 to 31 October 2025
Show answer
Correct answer: B. 2 to 31 October 2026
Explanation
The correct answer is 2 to 31 October 2026. The campaign is run in two clearly separated stages, and a question of this kind usually turns on telling them apart. Option A gives the dates of the preparatory phase, which is the stretch in which offices identify the files, references and grievances that they will take up, fix targets and put the institutional arrangements in place. The implementation phase that follows is the month in which that identified pendency is actually disposed of, space is freed and e-waste is collected, segregated and sent for disposal. Option C names a month in which no phase of the campaign falls. Option D repeats the dates of the previous edition, Special Campaign 5.0, which was held a year earlier and whose results form the baseline for this year's drive.
Special Campaign 6.0, the drive on cleanliness and disposal of pendency, has been launched by which department?
- A.Department of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances
- B.Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities
- C.Department of Personnel and Training
- D.Department of Expenditure
Show answer
Correct answer: A. Department of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances
Explanation
The correct answer is the Department of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances, usually written as DARPG. It runs the special campaign across the Government, lays down the parameters against which each office identifies its pending matters, issues the guidelines that offices follow, and takes the reporting of achievements on the campaign portal. Option B names the department that is implementing the drive in this particular case, which is the trap in the question: DEPwD is a participating department, not the one that launched the campaign. Option C handles service and personnel matters for the Government and is not the nodal department for this drive. Option D deals with public finance and expenditure control, and has no role in running the cleanliness and pendency campaign. Remember DARPG as the nodal department, and remember that each participating department nominates its own Nodal Officer.
