Mona Agarwal's winning score in the women's 10m air rifle standing SH1 event at the Asian Para Games 2026 set which record?

  1. A.A new world record
  2. B.A new Asian Para Games record
  3. C.A new national record only
  4. D.No record was set

Correct answer

B. A new Asian Para Games record

Explanation

The correct answer is a new Asian Para Games record. Mona Agarwal’s score in the women’s 10m air rifle standing SH1 event was high enough to establish a fresh Asian Para Games mark in that event, and the record came along with the gold medal on India’s opening day at the Games. Option A is wrong because the achievement is described as a Games record, not a world record; a world record would have to better the best mark set anywhere in the world, which is a different standard. Option C is wrong because the record named is for the Asian Para Games as a whole and not a domestic mark. Option D is wrong because the record is exactly what makes this gold medal doubly significant. A Games record is set at the competition itself and remains in the books until a shooter betters it at a later edition, so remember both parts of the result together: the gold medal and the new Asian Para Games record.
