- A.Five silver and six bronze
- B.Seven silver and four bronze
- C.Four silver and seven bronze
- D.Six silver and five bronze
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is seven silver and four bronze. The silver medallists were Manjeet in the men's javelin throw F12/F13, Bhagyashree Jadhav in the women's shot put F34, Mohd Yasser in the men's shot put F46, Banti in the men's high jump T64, Mohammad Basil M in the men's 100m T47, Preeti Pal in the women's 100m T35 and Kasthuri Rajamani in the women's -67kg powerlifting, which makes seven. The bronze medallists were Karamjyoti in the women's discus throw F55, Sukhchain in the men's javelin throw F55, Ravi Rongali in the men's shot put F40 and Parveen in the men's shot put F46, which makes four. Options A, C and D either reverse the two counts or redistribute them, and each therefore fails against the list of named winners. A reliable way to answer such a question is to count the names in each colour rather than to trust a remembered total.
