Answer 1

Hint: India is a country in South Asia that is officially known as the Republic of India . It is the world's second most populous country, the seventh largest by land area, and the world's most populous democracy.

Complete answer:
The Union Ministry of Home Affairs recently approved the renaming of Uttar Pradesh's Manduadih railway station to "Banaras." Uttar Pradesh's state government had previously submitted a request to the Home Ministry to rename a railway station in the Varanasi area. After conferring with the Ministry of Railways, Department of Posts, and Survey of India, the Home Ministry issued a no-objection certificate.

Varanasi, also known as Benares or Banaras, is a city in Uttar Pradesh, India, located on the banks of the Ganges River, 320 kilometres (200 miles) south of Lucknow and 121 kilometres (75 miles)Allahabad is to the east. It is the holiest of the seven sacred towns in Hinduism and Jainism, as well as having played a significant part in the establishment of Buddhism and Ravidassia.

Varanasi is served by the Varanasi Junction train station and the Lal Bahadur Shastri International Airport, which are both located along National Highway 2.

Varanasi developed into a significant industrial centre known for its muslin and silk fabrics, fragrances, ivory carvings, and sculpture. When Buddha gave his first sermon, "The Setting in Motion of the Wheel of Dharma," at nearby Sarnath in 528 BCE, it is thought that he started Buddhism here. When Adi Shankara established Shiva worship as an official sect of Varanasi in the 8th century, the city's religious importance grew even more.

In Uttar Pradesh, Manduadih railway station, which was renamed Banaras, is located.
Thus the correct answer is option ‘B’.

Note: A train station or railway station (also known as a railroad station, rail station, or depot) is a location where passengers and/or goods can board and disembark from trains. The majority of early stations were designed to accommodate both passengers and products. Goods are mainly only unloaded at large terminals nowadays.
