The question presents three pairs of names and disciplines, asking which are correctly matched. Pair 1: Anand Pawar and Chess. This pair is incorrect. Anand Pawar is known as a badminton player, not a chess player. Pair 2: Akhil Kumar and Boxing. This pair is correct. Akhil Kumar is a notable figure in Indian boxing. Pair 3: Shiv Shanker Prasad Chowrasia and Golf. This pair is correct. Chowrasia is well-known in the golfing world. Option 1: Suggests only the first two pairs are correct, but this is inaccurate as the first pair is incorrect. Option 2: Suggests that only the second and third pairs are correct, which aligns with our analysis above. Option 3: Suggests only the third pair is correct, missing out Akhil Kumar’s accurate pair. Option 4: Suggests that all three pairs are correct, which is incorrect due to the first pair`s error. Thus, option 2 (pair 2 and 3 only) is the correct answer.
