Correct answer: C
Concept
A zonal railway headquarters is the principal administrative office of that railway zone. To answer a location question, match each zone’s headquarters city with the state in which that city lies.
Application
South East Central Railway has its zonal headquarters at Bilaspur. Bilaspur is in Chhattisgarh, so this zone satisfies the location asked in the question.
Contrast
South Central Railway — Secunderabad, Telangana.
South Western Railway — Hubballi, Karnataka.
South East Central Railway — Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh.
West Central Railway — Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh.

The Indian Railways zonal listing identifies SECR with Bilaspur, while the other offered zones are headquartered outside Chhattisgarh.
Therefore, the answer is South East Central Railway.
