Answer is Right!
The correct answer is: B. 1853.
The first train steamed off in India on April 16, 1853, from Howrah to Hooghly. The train was built by the East India Railway Company and was pulled by a steam locomotive named “Fairy Queen”. The train was a great success and helped to open up the Indian subcontinent to trade and commerce.

Option C is incorrect because the first train steamed off in India in 1853, not 1875.
Option D is incorrect because the first train steamed off in India in 1853, not 1880.
