Question

Which railway zone became India's first to switch to compostable bioplastic on trains in August 2025?

The correct answer is

Northeast Frontier Railway

The question tests awareness of a recent green initiative taken by Indian Railways.

In August 2025, the Northeast Frontier Railway became the first zone in the country to switch to compostable bioplastic products on its trains, replacing single-use plastics with eco-friendly, biodegradable alternatives.

This step supports the Railways' broader push towards sustainability and reduction of plastic waste generated on board.

Northern, Southern and Western Railways are other operating zones but were not the ones credited with this first-of-its-kind switch.

Hence, the correct answer is Northeast Frontier Railway.
