Which scheme, approved at a cost of more than Rs 1,800 crore, is meant to build up India's sports goods manufacturing?

  1. A.Khelo India Sports Goods Manufacturing Scheme
  2. B.Target Olympic Podium Scheme
  3. C.Sugamya Bharat Abhiyan
  4. D.Fit India Movement

Correct answer

A. Khelo India Sports Goods Manufacturing Scheme

Explanation

The correct answer is the Khelo India Sports Goods Manufacturing Scheme, which has been approved at a cost of over Rs 1,800 crore. Speaking to the para-athletes, the Prime Minister urged the domestic industry to ensure that the gear, clothing and footwear worn by Indian and foreign players alike are made in India, which would strengthen micro, small and medium enterprises and create work in small towns and rural areas. Option B is wrong because the Target Olympic Podium Scheme supports elite athletes in training, and its athletes won 41 medals at these Games. Option C is wrong because the Sugamya Bharat Abhiyan is about making public places accessible to Divyangjan, not about manufacturing. Option D names no scheme announced here. Note also that Khelo India athletes won 19 medals at the same Games, which is the figure usually paired with the 41.
