Explanationव्याख्या

All five statements are correct according to the source.
The Union Government issued the National Sports Governance (National Sports Bodies) Rules, 2026 under the National Sports Governance Act, 2025.
The rules establish a governance framework for National Sports Bodies and Regional Sports Federations.
One of their areas of focus is the inclusion of Sportspersons of Outstanding Merit, or SOMs.
The framework also deals with the composition of the General Body and Executive Committee.
Election procedures and disqualification criteria for National Sports Bodies and Regional Sports Federations are specifically included.
The source further states that the rules provide for the establishment of a National Sports Election Panel.
They also specify processes for registering and updating affiliate units with the National Sports Board.
A major representation provision requires at least four SOMs to be included in the General Bodies of National Sports Bodies.
The source separately mentions women's representation, stating that fifty percent of the women SOMs must be in the General Body.
These provisions show that the rules address not only administrative structure but also athlete participation, representation and electoral governance.
From an examination perspective, students should distinguish the 2026 Rules from their enabling legislation, the National Sports Governance Act, 2025.
The year difference itself may be used to create a confusing option.
Similarly, the minimum number of SOMs is four according to the source, not two, three or five.
The National Sports Election Panel should also not be confused with the National Sports Board; the rules mention both, but in different contexts.
The Election Panel relates to elections, while affiliate units are registered and updated with the National Sports Board.
Quick revision: Rules 2026 → Act 2025 → SOMs → minimum four → General Body
Executive Committee → elections + disqualification → National Sports Election Panel → affiliate units with National Sports Board.
Therefore all five statements are correct and option D is the answer.

सभी पाँच statements source के अनुसार सही हैं। Union Government ने National Sports Governance (National Sports Bodies) Rules, 2026 को National Sports Governance Act, 2025 के अंतर्गत issue किया। Rules National Sports Bodies और Regional Sports Federations के लिए governance framework establish करते हैं। Important focus areas में Sportspersons of Outstanding Merit यानी SOMs का inclusion शामिल है। Framework General Body और Executive Committee की composition को भी cover करता है। National Sports Bodies तथा Regional Sports Federations के election procedures और disqualification criteria भी specifically rules में शामिल हैं। Source further बताता है कि National Sports Election Panel establish करने का provision है। Affiliate units को National Sports Board के साथ register और update करने की processes भी detail की गई हैं। Representation से संबंधित major provision के अनुसार National Sports Bodies की General Bodies में कम-से-कम four SOMs शामिल किए जाने चाहिए। Women's representation के लिए source separately कहता है कि women SOMs में से fifty percent General Body में होने चाहिए। इसलिए rules administrative structure के साथ athlete participation, representation और electoral governance को भी address करते हैं। Exam में Rules 2026 और enabling Act 2025 के years interchange किए जा सकते हैं। Minimum SOMs = four याद रखें। National Sports Election Panel और National Sports Board को भी confuse न करें। Election Panel elections से related है, जबकि affiliate units के registration/update का relation National Sports Board से है। Quick revision: Rules 2026 → Act 2025 → SOM inclusion → minimum four → General Body/Executive Committee → elections + disqualification → National Sports Election Panel → affiliate units with National Sports Board। इसलिए statements 1 से 5 सभी सही हैं और option D correct answer है।
