Explanation by: Admin

Wheels and axles for Indian Railways are manufactured at the Rail Wheel Factory (RWF) located in Yelahanka, Bengaluru, Karnataka.

  • This factory was established in 1984 and is a key unit of Indian Railways for producing forged and rolled wheels, axles, and wheel sets for locomotives and coaches.

Why other options are incorrect:

  • (B) Chennai – Has Integral Coach Factory (ICF) which manufactures coaches, not wheels and axles.
  • (C) Varanasi – Known for Diesel Locomotive Works (DLW), now called Banaras Locomotive Works (BLW), which manufactures locomotives.
  • (D) Nowhere in India – Incorrect, as the Rail Wheel Factory in Bengaluru exists and is operational.

So, the correct answer is (A) at Bengaluru.
