Solution
The correct option is D 5 hours 30 minutes Starting time from Chandigarh = 5 : 00 AM
Arrival time at New Delhi = 11 : 00 AM
So, time taken = 11 - 5 = 6 hours.
But the train stopped at Karnal for 30 minutes.
If the train had not stopped at Karnal,
Time it would have taken = 6 hours - 30 minutes = 5 hours 30 minutes
