Q1With reference to India's performance at the 2026 international science and mathematics Olympiads, consider the following statements: 1. India won a total of 12 silver and 7 gold medals across the four Olympiads. 2. The 2026 editions of these Olympiads were all hosted in India. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Explanation
Both statements are incorrect. India actually won 12 gold and 7 silver medals (not 12 silver and 7 gold) across the four Olympiads, its best-ever showing. The 2026 editions were held in Colombia, Uzbekistan, Lithuania and China, not in India. Hence the answer is D.
