How did the Indian women's kabaddi team win its gold medal at the Asian Games?
- A.After a thrilling final
- B.By walkover in the semi-final
- C.Through a round-robin points table
- D.After the final was abandoned
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is after a thrilling final. The women's kabaddi team took its gold in a final that was described as thrilling, and the Prime Minister praised the side for remarkable courage, composure and teamwork, adding that India is proud of its kabaddi champions. Option B is wrong because no walkover was reported in the women's event. Option C is wrong because the gold was decided in a final and not by a points table. Option D is wrong because the final was completed and produced a winner. Along with the men's team keeping its title, this gave India both kabaddi golds on 26 September 2026, a pairing worth memorising for the sports section of competitive papers. For revision, pair the word retained with the men’s event and the word thrilling with the women’s final, because a paper may reverse the two descriptions.
