Simran won the gold medal at the Asian Para Games 2026 in which event?
- A.Women's 200m T12
- B.Women's 100m T12
- C.Women's 400m T13
- D.Women's Long Jump T12
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is the Women's 100m T12. Simran took the title in the women's 100 metres run in the T12 classification at the Asian Para Games 2026, and the timing she produced in that final was good enough to stand as a new Games Record. Option A names the 200m in the same class, a different distance altogether, and the gold under discussion was won over the shorter sprint. Option C changes both the distance and the classification, moving the race to 400m and to T13, so it cannot be the event in question. Option D shifts the discipline from a track sprint to a field event, the long jump, which is not the event in which this gold was won. Candidates should note that at a para multi-sport meet the distance and the classification together identify the event, so the answer has to match on both counts, and only the women's 100m T12 does.
