Himanshu Nandal's bronze medal at the Asian Para Games came in which event?
- A.Men's 100m Freestyle S11, swimming
- B.Men's 50m Rifle 3 Positions SH1, shooting
- C.Mixed Doubles SL3-SU5, badminton
- D.Men's Club Throw F51, athletics
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is the Men's 100m Freestyle S11 swimming event. Himanshu Nandal finished third in this race, and the Prime Minister pointed out that it was the third bronze medal to his name at this edition of the Games, calling it an impressive performance. Option B is wrong because the three positions rifle event in the SH1 class is where Mona Agarwal won India's historic shooting gold with a world record, a women's event and a different discipline altogether. Option C is wrong because the Mixed Doubles SL3-SU5 silver was won by Nitesh Kumar and Thulasimathi Murugesan in para badminton. Option D is wrong because the club throw belongs to para athletics and is not among the events credited to Himanshu Nandal. For revision, link the swimmer to the pool and to the count of three bronze medals in this edition.
