According to the source, the Indian Olympic Association launched the National Olympic Education and Development Programme, abbreviated as NOEDP, and reactivated the National Olympic Academy, or NOA, on 12 January 2026.
The initiatives are intended to strengthen India's Olympic movement through athlete-centric development and the adoption of global best practices in sports education.

Usha → President of NOA; Gagan Narang → Director of NOA.
The source further states that NOEDP will function as a nationwide framework for structured sports education.
It is to be implemented in partnership with National Sports Federations and State Olympic Associations.
Therefore, NOEDP and NOA are related but distinct elements of the initiative.
NOEDP is the nationwide programme
framework, whereas the revived NOA serves as the central institution for Olympic education, research and dialogue.
The launch
reactivation date is another useful fact: 12 January 2026.
The institution had been inactive since 2018.
For revision, remember: IOA → 12 Jan 2026 → launches NOEDP + revives NOA → athlete-centric development + global best practices → NOA inactive since 2018 → P.
T.
Usha President → Gagan Narang Director → NOEDP implemented with National Sports Federations and State Olympic Associations.
Since the question asks who became President of the revived National Olympic Academy, option B, P.
T.
Usha, is correct.
