D. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5D. 1, 2, 3, 4 और 5

Explanationव्याख्या

All five statements are correct.
The source states that R Praggnanandhaa and Anish Giri led Alpine SG Pipers to victory in Global Chess League 2025 Season 3 in Mumbai.
The championship was significant because it was Alpine SG Pipers' maiden GCL title.
Their opponents were Triveni Continental Kings, who entered the contest as the defending champions.
Alpine SG Pipers defeated them with match scores recorded in the source as 4-2 and 4.5-1.5.
The result therefore represented both the rise of a new champion and the defeat of the defending title-holders.
Individual performances were also important.
Anish Giri is mentioned for his consistent wins, while Praggnanandhaa delivered a decisive victory against Vidit Gujrathi.
This creates several examination-relevant associations.
Students should remember that Praggnanandhaa and Vidit Gujrathi are connected in this news through their decisive game, while Praggnanandhaa and Anish Giri are associated as the leading Grandmasters of Alpine SG Pipers.
The event is identified as Season 3 of Global Chess League 2025 and was held in Mumbai.
A possible exam trap could describe Triveni Continental Kings as the winners; in fact, they were the defending champions who were defeated.
Another trap could state that Alpine SG Pipers had previously won the league; the source specifically describes this as their maiden GCL championship.
The numerical match scores may also be tested: 4-2 and 4.5-1.5.
For quick revision: Season 3 → Mumbai; Champions → Alpine SG Pipers; maiden championship → yes; leaders → Praggnanandhaa and Anish Giri; runners-up
defeated defending champions → Triveni Continental Kings; Praggnanandhaa's key opponent → Vidit Gujrathi.
Since statements 1 through 5 accurately reproduce the source, option D is correct.

सभी पाँच statements सही हैं। Source के अनुसार R Praggnanandhaa और Anish Giri ने Alpine SG Pipers को Mumbai में Global Chess League 2025 Season 3 title जिताया। यह championship इसलिए विशेष था क्योंकि यह Alpine SG Pipers का maiden GCL title था। उनके opponents Triveni Continental Kings थे, जो defending champions के रूप में contest में आए थे। Alpine SG Pipers ने उन्हें source में दिए गए 4-2 और 4.5-1.5 match scores के साथ हराया। इसलिए result एक new champion के emergence और defending champions की defeat दोनों को represent करता है। Individual performances भी important थीं। Anish Giri को consistent wins के लिए mention किया गया है, जबकि Praggnanandhaa ने Vidit Gujrathi के खिलाफ decisive victory हासिल की। इससे कई exam-relevant associations बनते हैं। Praggnanandhaa और Vidit Gujrathi इस news में decisive game के कारण linked हैं, जबकि Praggnanandhaa और Anish Giri Alpine SG Pipers के leading Grandmasters के रूप में जुड़े हैं। Event Global Chess League 2025 का Season 3 था और Mumbai में आयोजित हुआ। Exam trap में Triveni Continental Kings को winner बताया जा सकता है, जबकि वे defending champions थे जिन्हें Alpine SG Pipers ने हराया। दूसरा trap यह हो सकता है कि Alpine SG Pipers पहले भी title जीत चुके थे; source इसे उनका maiden GCL championship बताता है। Scores 4-2 और 4.5-1.5 भी याद रखें। Quick revision: Season 3 → Mumbai; Champion → Alpine SG Pipers; maiden title → yes; leaders → Praggnanandhaa + Anish Giri; defeated defending champion → Triveni Continental Kings; key win → Praggnanandhaa over Vidit Gujrathi। इसलिए सभी statements सही हैं और option D answer है।
