Which trio won the silver medal in the women's Trap team event at the Asian Games?
- A.Manisha Keer, Neeru and Aashima Ahlawat
- B.Manu Bhaker, Esha Singh and Rhythm Sangwan
- C.Rajeshwari Kumari, Shreyasi Singh and Preeti Rajak
- D.Anjum Moudgil, Sift Kaur Samra and Ashi Chouksey
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Manisha Keer, Neeru and Aashima Ahlawat. These three shooters made up the Indian side that finished second in the women's Trap team competition at the Asian Games, and the Prime Minister congratulated them by name on the silver, praising their precision, focus and teamwork. Option B lists pistol shooters, and the medal in question came in a shotgun event, so that combination cannot be right. Option C names other shotgun shooters, which makes the option look plausible on the surface, but they are not the trio credited with this particular team medal. Option D lists rifle shooters, a separate discipline again from Trap. Candidates should link the three names in option A to the women's Trap team silver, and keep the individual Trap result of the same Games separate from it.
