    Explanation:

    Let the distance between Bombay and Pune = d km

    Indrayani’s Speed =(d/4) kmph and that of Shatabdi = (d/3.5)kmph
    Let t be the time in hrs after Shatabdi has left for Pune, when the two trains meet
    Therefore, distance travelled by Shatabdi = (d/3.5)* t
    And that of Indrayani =(d/4) * (t-30/60)
    The sum of the distances travelled by the two trains = distance between Bombay and Pune = d km
    Therefore, (d/3.5)* t +(d/4) * (t-30/60)=d
    Solving for t, we get t = 2.1 hrs or 2 hrs and 6 mins
    The two trains meet at 19:06 hrs
    Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
