Hokato Hotozhe Sema won his bronze medal at the Asian Para Games 2026 in which event?

  1. A.Men’s Discus Throw F51/52/53
  2. B.Men’s Javelin Throw F53/54
  3. C.Men’s Shot Put F56/F57
  4. D.Men’s Shot Put F11

Correct answer

C. Men’s Shot Put F56/F57

Explanation

The correct answer is the Men’s Shot Put F56/F57 event. Hokato Hotozhe Sema took the bronze there on 20 October 2026, and the Prime Minister noted that the throw improved on what he had produced at the previous edition of the Games, calling it a sign of passion and dedication. Option A names a discus class group in which India’s medals that day were a gold and a silver, not a bronze. Option B names a javelin class group, a third throwing discipline altogether. Option D is the sharpest distractor because it also names the shot put, but with a completely different classification, and a different Indian athlete won a bronze in that class on the same day. Throwing events at a para meet are split into several class groups, so the discipline alone never identifies the medal; the code has to travel with it.
