Q1Match the reported detail of Indian Railways' first hydrogen-powered coach test with the correct description. List I 1. Tested unit 2. Time of successful test 3. Test site List II P. First hydrogen-powered coach or driving power car Q. Earlier in July 2025 R. Integral Coach Factory in Chennai S. Northern Railway headquarters Choose the correct code.
The correct matching is tested unit with the first hydrogen-powered coach or driving power car, time with earlier in July 2025, and site with Integral Coach Factory in Chennai. Northern Railway headquarters is not the test site in the cited report.
Q2Assertion: PESO is the authority mentioned in relation to licensing for compressed hydrogen gas at the Jind hydrogen train facility. Reason: PESO granted the required licence for storage and dispensing of compressed hydrogen gas at that facility. Choose the correct answer.
The Assertion is true because the cited fact names PESO in the licensing context for the Jind hydrogen train facility. The Reason is also true because PESO granted the required licence for storage and dispensing of compressed hydrogen gas, and that grant is exactly why PESO is the relevant licensing authority in the statement. Claims denying the licence grant or separating it from the Assertion conflict with the sourced fact.
Q3Match the parliamentary information item with the Union Minister who gave the reply: List I: December 2025 Lok Sabha reply on the hydrogen train List II: Union Minister Which match is correct?
The correct match is the December 2025 Lok Sabha reply on the hydrogen train with Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw. Nitin Gadkari, Hardeep Singh Puri and Jyotiraditya Scindia are plausible adjacent Union ministers, but the cited fact attributes this specific Lok Sabha reply to Ashwini Vaishnaw.
Q4Indian Railways has planned the proposed maintenance facility for the first hydrogen trainset at which location?
The cited PIB release states that the proposed maintenance facility for the first hydrogen trainset is planned at Shakurbasti. Kalka, Jind and Sonipat are plausible railway locations connected with northern railway operations and the hydrogen-train discussion, but they are not the planned maintenance-facility location in the assigned fact.
Q5Consider the following statements about the safety package for the first indigenous hydrogen train's hydrogen facility: 1. Flame detectors are part of the facility's safety sensor package. 2. Flame detectors are mentioned as equipment only for the passenger coaches, not for the hydrogen facility. 3. Flame detectors are listed as a substitute for hydrogen storage at the facility. Which of the statements given above is correct?
Statement 1 is correct because the cited PIB release includes flame detectors in the safety sensor package for the hydrogen production, storage and dispensing facility. Statement 2 is wrong because the fact links flame detectors to the hydrogen facility, not only to passenger coaches. Statement 3 is wrong because the detectors are safety sensors, not a replacement for hydrogen storage.
