Dilip Gavit won the gold medal at the Asian Para Games 2026 in which event?

C. Men's 100m T47

Explanation

The correct answer is the Men's 100m T47.

Option D takes the event out of the track programme altogether and puts it in the long jump, a field event. Aspirants should note that in para athletics a result is identified by the distance and the classification taken together, so a question of this kind is answered correctly only when both parts match, and here the matching pair is the 100 metres and the T47 class.
