How many gold medals did Nishad Kumar finish with at the Asian Para Games 2026?
- A.One
- B.Two
- C.Three
- D.Four
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is two. Nishad Kumar had already won the long jump gold earlier at the Asian Para Games 2026, and on 20 October 2026 he added the Men’s High Jump T47 gold with a new Games Record, so he ended the meet with two gold medals. Option A would be right only for an athlete who won a single title, and it misses the long jump gold that the Prime Minister pointed to when he praised the athlete for being able to win in two different jumping events. Options C and D overstate the tally; nothing in the day’s record credits him with a third or fourth gold. The reason this count is worth memorising is that the two golds came in two different disciplines, the high jump and the long jump, which is what makes the achievement a test of range rather than of one specialised skill, and examiners like to ask for the number precisely because it rewards a candidate who read beyond the single headline medal.
