RRB NTPC GK Questions 2026

Static General Knowledge makes up the rest of the General Awareness section in RRB NTPC, and the notices name its topics: General Science and Life Science up to Class 10, History of India and the freedom struggle, Physical, Social and Economic Geography of India and the world, Indian Polity and Governance, Indian Economy, Art and Culture, Indian Literature, Monuments and Places, Flora and Fauna, Famous Personalities, the UN and other world organisations, environmental issues, Transport Systems in India, Important Government and Public Sector Organisations, Common Abbreviations, and Basics of Computers and Computer Applications. RRB frames these as short factual questions: the unit of a physical quantity, the year of a battle, the article of the Constitution, the river a city stands on, the full form of an abbreviation, the headquarters of an organisation. GK24's GK notes on this page cover each topic in English and Hindi, arranged the way the syllabus lists them, with the facts RRB tends to ask placed first. Work through one topic at a time, note the lists (national parks, dances, articles, schedules, awards), and pair each topic with its quiz on GK24 to check what has stayed with you.

  3. C.The Belt and Road Initiative and Colombo Port
  4. D.The Trans-Siberian Railway and Vladivostok Port
Show answer
Correct answer: B. The International North-South Transport Corridor and Chabahar Port

Underlining that connectivity underpins shared prosperity, the Raksha Mantri said India supports initiatives that link markets, make trade easier and open fresh avenues for development, and he named these two as able to contribute significantly to connecting Central Asia with wider markets.

  1. A.2024-2028
  2. B.2025-2029
  3. C.2026-2030
  4. D.2027-2031
Show answer
Correct answer: C. 2026-2030

Speaking at the meeting, the Raksha Mantri reaffirmed India's support for adopting an Action Plan for the Multilateral Trade and Economic Cooperation Programme for exactly that span, and the plan went on to form part of the Joint Communique that the heads of delegation adopted.

Q4008.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2018, GATMedium

Which of the following statements about a fluid at rest in a cup is/are correct? 1. Pressure is same at all the points in the fluid 2. Pressure is exerted on the walls. 3. Pressure exists everywhere in the fluid. Select the correct answer using the code given below :

  1. A.1 and 2 only
  2. B.2 and 3 only
  3. C.1 only
  4. D.1, 2 and 3
Show answer
Correct answer: B. 2 and 3 only

A fluid at rest presses on the walls and has pressure at every point, but that pressure is not the same at all depths.

Q4010.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2019, GATMedium

Dinitrogen (N₂) and dioxygen (O₂) are the main constituents of air but they do not react with each other to form oxides of nitrogen because

  1. A.the reaction requires initiation by a catalyst
  2. B.oxides of nitrogen are unstable
  3. C.the reaction is endothermic and requires very high temperature
  4. D.the stoichiometry of N₂ and O₂ in air is not ideal for the reaction to take place
Show answer
Correct answer: C. the reaction is endothermic and requires very high temperature

Nitrogen and oxygen combine only when a lot of energy is supplied. The nitrogen molecule is held by a very strong triple bond, so breaking it takes much energy, and the reaction N₂ + O₂ → 2NO absorbs heat.

Q4013.Indian HistoryAsked in: NDA · NDA-II 2022, GATEasy

Who among the following invented the flying shuttle?

  1. A.James Hargreaves
  2. B.John Kay
  3. C.Richard Arkwright
  4. D.Humphry Davy
Show answer
Correct answer: B. John Kay

He patented the flying shuttle in England in 1733. The flying shuttle let a single weaver send the thread across the loom by pulling a cord, so wider cloth could be woven much faster.

Q4014.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2023, GATMedium

A positive charge is moving towards south in a space where magnetic field is pointing in the north direction. The moving charge will experience :

  1. A.a deflecting force towards north direction.
  2. B.a deflecting force towards east direction.
  3. C.a deflecting force towards west direction.
  4. D.no deflecting force.
Show answer
Correct answer: D. no deflecting force.

The charge moves exactly opposite to the field, and a magnetic field exerts no force on a charge moving along its line.

Which one of the following about different frictional forces is correct?

  1. A.Kinetic friction > Static friction > Rolling friction
  2. B.Static friction > Rolling friction > Kinetic friction
  3. C.Static friction > Kinetic friction > Rolling friction
  4. D.Static friction > Kinetic friction = Rolling friction
Show answer
Correct answer: C. Static friction > Kinetic friction > Rolling friction

It takes most force to start an object moving, less to keep it sliding and least to keep it rolling.

Q4018.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2017, GATMedium

Red blood cells (RBCs) have

  1. A.no nucleus, no mitochondria and no endoplasmic reticulum
  2. B.nucleus, mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum
  3. C.nucleus, mitochondria but no endoplasmic reticulum
  4. D.no mitochondria but endoplasmic reticulum is present
Show answer
Correct answer: A. no nucleus, no mitochondria and no endoplasmic reticulum

Mature human red blood cells lose these organelles as they develop. Red blood cells are made in the red bone marrow and push out their nucleus and other organelles before entering the blood.

Q4019.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2018, GATEasy

A ball balanced on a vertical rod is an example of

  1. A.stable equilibrium
  2. B.unstable equilibrium
  3. C.neutral equilibrium
  4. D.perfect equilibrium
Show answer
Correct answer: B. unstable equilibrium

The slightest push makes the ball fall off and it does not come back. A body is in unstable equilibrium when a small displacement lowers its centre of gravity, so the forces acting on it move it further away instead of back.

Q4020.General ScienceAsked in: NDA · NDA-I 2019, GATEasy

Which one of the following is an organic acid?

  1. A.Hydrochloric acid
  2. B.Nitric acid
  3. C.Acetic acid
  4. D.Sulphuric acid
Show answer
Correct answer: C. Acetic acid

It is a carbon compound with a carboxyl group, so it is an organic acid. Acetic acid (ethanoic acid, CH₃COOH) contains the –COOH group typical of carboxylic acids.
