Which statement about Deepthi Jeevanji’s gold medal at the Asian Para Games 2026 is correct?

  1. A.It was her first appearance in the event and her first title
  2. B.She successfully defended a title she already held
  3. C.She won it in a team relay event
  4. D.She finished second and was later awarded the gold

Correct answer

B. She successfully defended a title she already held

Explanation

The correct answer is that she successfully defended a title she already held. The gold in the Women’s 400m T20 event at the Asian Para Games 2026 was won once again by Deepthi Jeevanji, so the result was a defence rather than a maiden triumph, and the defence came with a Games Record because she improved on her earlier performance. Option A turns the defence into a debut, which reverses the single most important detail of the story. Option C converts an individual race into a relay, and no team event was involved. Option D invents a change of result after the race, which was not reported anywhere. Examiners like this distinction because the words retained, defended and won for the first time look similar in an option list but test whether a candidate actually read the news rather than only the athlete’s name.
