Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Concept
An awardee–field matching question is solved by comparing each named recipient with the field recorded in the official award list for the stated year.
A pair is correctly matched only when both the recipient identity and the recorded field agree with that official list.
Application
The official Padma Awards 2022 list gives the following recipient-to-field mapping:
Recipient | Official field | Field stated in the option |
|---|---|---|
Devendra Jhajharia | Sports | Sports |
Satyanarayan (Satya) Nadella | Trade and Industry | Trade and Industry |
Cyrus Poonawalla | Trade and Industry | Trade and Industry |
Rashid Khan | Art | Literature |
Contrast
Devendra Jhajharia — Sports agrees with the official field.
Satyanarayan Nadella — Trade and Industry agrees with the official field listed for Satya Nadella.
Cyrus Poonawalla — Trade and Industry agrees with the official field.
Rashid Khan — Literature conflicts with the official field, which is Art.
Result
Therefore, Rashid Khan — Literature is the pair that is not correctly matched.
