A I and II only
B II and III only
C I and III only
D I, II and III

Correct answer: (a) I and II only

Explanation

  1. A

    I and II only

    I and II only are not correct. NRP is a 2030 future-ready plan, not 2028. Kavach is RDSO/Indian, not a German joint product.

  2. B

    II and III only

    II and III only. That would mark the RFID line as not correct. The official pair is I and II.

  3. C

    I and III only

    I and III only. Drops the Germany line, which is not correct.

  4. D

    I, II and III

    All three. III is not in the official ‘not correct’ set.

Summary. Official key is (a): I and II are the statements that are not correct. National Rail Plan’s horizon is 2030, not 2028, and Kavach is indigenous, not a German collaboration. RFID on track in station sections (III) is not in the official ‘not correct’ pair.
