'on behalf of' is used when someone is representing something for somebody else which could be an individual or an organisation consisting of many people.

I think (B) , either you "caused BY" or just "due to", "caused" & "due to" can't appear together, as both have same affect & hence repetition.

On the part of railway is used because train management and services is the part of railway. Whereas behalf is used to represent something.

"On behalf of Railway" is not correct. If it were "On behalf of railway Authority", then it may took as correct one.

Behalf of is used to represent someone but here no other responsible for the delay but the railways so it shouldn't be behalf of.

The corrected sentence is: "A lot of travel delay is caused due to the inefficiency and lack of good management by the railways".
