Consider the following pairs with regard to sports awards: 1. Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna Award — For the most spectacular and outstanding performance by a sportsperson over period of last four years 2. Arjuna Award — For the lifetime achievement by a sportsperson 3. Dronacharya Award — To honour eminent coaches who have successfully trained sportspersons or teams 4. Rashtriya Khel Protsahan Puraskar — To recognize the contribution made by sportspersons even after their retirement. How many of the above pairs are correctly matched?

1. Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna Award — Given for the most outstanding performance by a sportsperson over the previous four years. Correct.

2. Arjuna Award — It is not for lifetime achievement; it is for good performance over the previous four years and qualities of leadership, sportsmanship, and discipline. Incorrect.

3. Dronacharya Award — Conferred on eminent coaches who have successfully trained sportspersons/teams and enabled them to excel in international events. Correct.

4. Rashtriya Khel Protsahan Puraskar — It is for entities such as organizations, corporates, NGOs, etc. promoting sports, not for retired sportspersons’ post-retirement contribution. That role fits the Dhyan Chand Award for Lifetime Achievement. Incorrect.

Hence, only two pairs are correctly matched.
