Parinaaz Dhaliwal, Maheshwari Chauhan and Raiza Dhillon won a bronze medal in which event?
- A.Women's archery team
- B.Women's trap team
- C.Women's skeet team
- D.Women's air rifle team
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is the women's skeet team event. The Prime Minister congratulated the three shooters on the bronze medal and said their focus, precision and teamwork had brought another proud moment for Indian sport. Skeet is a shotgun discipline in which clay targets are flung across the range and the team result is arrived at by combining the members' scores. Option A, women's archery team, is wrong because all three are shooters and no archery result was announced in this message. Option B, women's trap team, names a different shotgun event; trap and skeet are separate disciplines and the medal here was specifically in skeet. Option D, women's air rifle team, belongs to the rifle group of shooting events and not to the shotgun group, so it does not fit this result either.
