Consider the following statements in respect of the first Kho Kho World Cup : I. The event was held in Delhi, India. II. Indian men beat Nepal with a score of 78-40 in the final to become the World Champion in men category. III. Indian women beat Nepal with a score of 54-36 in the final to become the World Champion in women category. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
- A.I only
- B.II and III only
- C.I and III only
- D.I, II and III
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is A, I only. The first Kho Kho World Cup was held in New Delhi in January 2025, at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium, so statement I is correct. India won both titles and beat Nepal in both finals, but the question swaps the two scores. The Indian women's team won its final 78-40, and the Indian men's team won its final 54-36. Statement II gives the men the women's score, and statement III gives the women the men's score, so both are wrong. The event was organised by the Kho Kho Federation of India with the International Kho Kho Federation, and teams from about 20 countries took part. Priyanka Ingle led the women's side and Pratik Waikar led the men's side. Option B is wrong because both of its statements carry swapped scores. Option C is wrong because statement III is false. Option D is wrong because statements II and III are false. Exam tip: first Kho Kho World Cup, New Delhi 2025: women beat Nepal 78-40, men beat Nepal 54-36.
