In which event did India win all three medals at the Asian Para Games 2026 on 22 October?
- A.Men's High Jump T42/T63
- B.Men's Long Jump T42/T63
- C.Men's 400m Freestyle S10
- D.Women's High Jump T42/T63
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Men's High Jump T42/T63. Gold went to Shailesh Kumar, silver to Varun Singh Bhati and bronze to Rahul, so every place on the podium in that single final was filled by an Indian athlete. Option B is wrong because the long jump was not the event in question; the three medals came in the high jump, where the jumper clears a raised bar rather than covering distance. Option C names a swimming event from the same Games in which India won one medal, a silver, and not a full sweep of the podium. Option D is wrong because the sweep came in the men's section of the high jump, not the women's. For revision, the useful shorthand is one event, one classification, three Indian names and three different medals, all decided on the same day.
