- A.Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, New Delhi
- B.Talkatora Stadium, New Delhi
- C.Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium, New Delhi
- D.Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium, New Delhi
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Talkatora Stadium, New Delhi. The Vice-President of India, Shri C. P. Radhakrishnan, opened the National Organ Transplant Games 2026 at Talkatora Stadium in the capital, where transplant recipients, living donors and the families of donors who had died came together. The meet was organised by the Renal Care Foundation along with Sir Ganga Ram Hospital and the National Organ and Tissue Transplant Organization, which works under the Union Health Ministry. Option A is wrong because the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium was not the site of this opening. Option C is wrong because the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium hosted no part of these Games as reported. Option D is wrong because the Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium was likewise not the venue. The Vice-President also took the Organ Donation Pledge with the gathering and watched exhibition matches of kabaddi, table tennis and badminton at the same venue.
