Model Answer
Two advantages of using Kulhads by Railways:
- Eco-friendly: Kulhads are made of clay and are biodegradable, so they do not pollute the environment unlike plastic or paper cups.
- Revival of tradition: They help bring back the taste of tradition and support local potters (kumbhars), promoting indigenous craftsmanship.
Explanation
The source passages provided are unrelated to this question (they cover stock markets). Answer is based on general CBSE Social Science/Economics knowledge about sustainable practices and use of Kulhads. Examiners expect two distinct, clearly stated points. Common valid points include: biodegradable/eco-friendly nature, support to local artisans, cultural revival, healthier/natural material, and no chemical leaching. Write one clear point per advantage.
