Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (d) Lucknow

Explanation

Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL), set up in 1964, is a Maharatna public sector company that makes equipment for power generation, transmission, transport and defence. Its major manufacturing plants include:

  • Bhopal (Heavy Electrical Plant, its oldest unit);
  • Haridwar (Heavy Electrical Equipment Plant and Central Foundry Forge Plant);
  • Hyderabad (Heavy Power Equipment Plant);
  • Tiruchirappalli, Jhansi, Ranipet and Bengaluru.

Lucknow has no BHEL manufacturing plant, so it is the city not related to BHEL here.
