Who won the gold medal in the men's long jump T47 event at the Asian Para Games 2026?
- A.Praveen Kumar
- B.Nishad Kumar
- C.Sharad Kumar
- D.Mariyappan Thangavelu
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Nishad Kumar. He won the men's long jump T47 gold medal at the Asian Para Games 2026 with what was described as an outstanding jump, and the Prime Minister noted that the title arrived on his debut in the event, which made it even more special. The Prime Minister also praised his versatility, determination and sporting excellence. Option A, Praveen Kumar, option C, Sharad Kumar, and option D, Mariyappan Thangavelu, are all wrong because none of them figures in this particular result; they are plausible only because Indian jumpers often appear together in the same medal lists, which is the trap a question of this kind sets. For revision, store the answer as a single string of three parts: Nishad Kumar, men's long jump T47, gold at the Asian Para Games 2026.
