Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Concept: General-knowledge items about Olympic medallists are settled by matching the athlete's name to the exact event and discipline recorded in the Games' official results, published by the International Olympic Committee and the sport's international federation.

Application: At the Paris 2024 Olympics, Aman Sehrawat represented India in the men's 57 kg freestyle category and won the bronze medal after defeating Puerto Rico's Darian Toi Cruz in the bronze-medal bout, becoming, at 21, India's youngest individual Olympic medallist. United World Wrestling's official Paris 2024 results and India's Press Information Bureau list this medal under the wrestling competition.

Cross-check: India's official Paris 2024 medal table confirms Aman Sehrawat's entry sits solely under wrestling, distinct from the country's boxing, shooting, and badminton contingents at the same Games.

Contrast:

  • Boxing: a combat sport decided by judges scoring clean punches landed on an opponent inside a ring, contested in its own weight classes; India fielded boxers at Paris 2024 in categories separate from wrestling.

  • Shooting: a precision sport in which competitors fire at fixed targets with pistols or rifles and are scored on accuracy rather than physical contact; India's shooting squad competed in its own pistol and rifle events at Paris 2024.

  • Badminton: a racket sport played over a net with a shuttlecock, scored by winning rallies; India's badminton entrants competed in singles and doubles draws separate from the wrestling mat.

Aman Sehrawat's bronze medal at Paris 2024 belongs to the wrestling discipline, men's 57 kg freestyle.
