Solution
The correct option is D RoRo System
RoRo means Roll on Roll off, trucks are rolled on to the wagons of the train and the train carries the trucks along with their drivers and cleaners. Then the trucks are rolled off from the train wagons at the railway station near the desired location. From there the trucks roll again.
Airways is the most expensive mode of transport. Waterways is also not a feasible option because the trasportation is to happen from Delhi to Chennai. Hence, Anshul can shift the goods through RoRo system.
