  4. (d) India decisively beat China 21-19 in Pool B
Answer & solution

Answer: (a) India reached quarter-finals after 12 years but lost 21-11 to New Zealand

Correct Answer: Option 1 – India reached quarter-finals after 12 years but lost 21-11 to New Zealand
At the FIBA 3x3 Asia Cup 2025, India's men's basketball team reached the quarter-finals for the first time in 12 years, marking a significant achievement. However, they lost 21-11 to New Zealand in the quarter-finals.
Option 2 (Women's team): The question asks specifically about the men's team's performance; this statement about the women's team is not what the question asks.
Option 3 (Arvind Muthu 45 points): This scoring figure is incorrect per the reported match data.
Option 4 (Beat China 21-19 in Pool B): This specific result is inaccurate per the tournament records.

Statement 2 is INCORRECT: At the Khelo India Youth Games 2025, Maharashtra outperformed Punjab in the U17 Freestyle wrestling category. Punjab did not score more than Maharashtra in this event.

  1. (a) Magnus Carlsen
  2. (b) Viswanathan Anand
  3. (c) R. Praggnanandhaa
  4. (d) D. Gukesh
Answer & solution

Answer: (d) D. Gukesh

Correct Answer: Option 4 – D. Gukesh
Dommaraju Gukesh (D. Gukesh), an Indian chess grandmaster from Chennai, became the undisputed World Chess Champion on December 12, 2024, by defeating defending champion Ding Liren (China) in the World Chess Championship match held in Singapore. At age 18, Gukesh became the youngest World Chess Champion in history, surpassing the record previously held by Garry Kasparov (who became champion at 22 in 1985). Gukesh earned the right to challenge Ding Liren by winning the 2024 Candidates Tournament in Toronto, Canada.
Option 1 (Magnus Carlsen): The Norwegian chess legend and multiple world champion (2013–2023); he vacated the title without defending it — not the 2024 champion.
Option 2 (Viswanathan Anand): Indian chess legend and five-time World Champion (2000, 2007–2010, 2012) — not the 2024 champion.
Option 3 (R. Praggnanandhaa ): Another top Indian grandmaster (also from Chennai); he narrowly lost to Gukesh in the 2024 Candidates Tournament final tiebreaks.

Q338. Which of the following statements is correct about India's performance at the Asian Athletics Championships 2025 in Gumi, South Korea?

  1. (a) India topped the medal tally with 24 medals, including nine golds.
  2. (b) Rupal Chaudhary won medals in both individual and team events, including a gold in the women's 5000m.
  3. (c) The Indian mixed relay team defended its title with only one member returning from the 2023 team.
  4. (d) Avinash Sable won silver in the 3000m steeplechase, ending a 36-year medal drought.
Answer & solution

Answer: (c) The Indian mixed relay team defended its title with only one member returning from the 2023 team.

Correct Answer: Option 3 – The Indian mixed relay team defended its title with only one member returning from the 2023 team
At the Asian Athletics Championships 2025 in Gumi, South Korea, India had a strong showing. The Indian mixed 4×400m relay team successfully defended its title from the 2023 edition, with remarkable squad renewal — only one returning member from the 2023 championship team, demonstrating India's depth in middle-distance relay running.
Option 1 (Topped with 24 medals): The specific medal count and India topping the tally with exactly these figures is not the accurately stated result.
Option 2 (Rupal Chaudhary gold in 5000m): Rupal Chaudhary specializes in 400m and relay events; a gold in the 5000m is inconsistent with her event profile.
Option 4 (Avinash Sable silver, 36-year drought): While Avinash Sable is India's leading steeplechase athlete, the specific claim of 'silver' ending a '36-year drought' does not accurately describe the 2025 Gumi results.

  3. (c) The Indian mixed relay team defended its title with only one member returning from the 2023 team.
  4. (d) Avinash Sable won silver in the 3000m steeplechase, ending a 36-year medal drought.
Answer & solution

Answer: (c) The Indian mixed relay team defended its title with only one member returning from the 2023 team.

Correct Answer: Option 3 – The Indian mixed relay team defended its title with only one member returning from the 2023 team
At the Asian Athletics Championships 2025 held in Gumi, South Korea, India had a strong performance. The Indian mixed 4×400m relay team successfully defended its title from the 2023 edition, with only one team member (from 2023) in the squad — demonstrating India's depth in relay athletics.
Option 1 (India topped with 24 medals): India did perform well but topping the tally with exactly 24 medals including nine golds is not the accurately cited figure for this championship.
Option 2 (Rupal Chaudhary gold in 5000m): Rupal Chaudhary competes in sprint/400m events; a gold in the women's 5000m is not consistent with her event profile.
Option 4 (Avinash Sable silver, 36-year drought): Avinash Sable is the 3000m steeplechase specialist; while he has won medals at Asian Athletics events, the specific claim of 'silver' and '36-year medal drought' does not accurately describe this 2025 event's results.
