The Khel Ratna Award began in which year?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 1991 CE

The direct answer is option B, 1991 CE. The Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna, now known as the Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna Award, was instituted in 1991 as India’s highest sporting honour. It recognises outstanding performance by an Indian sportsperson. The date must be distinguished from the date of the first presentation, which is often discussed as 1992; the question asks when the award began or was instituted, for which 1991 is the expected answer. Option A, 1985, is wrong because that year is not the accepted institution year of the Khel Ratna. Option B, 1991, is correct. Option C, 2002, is wrong; by then the award had already existed for several years. Option D, 2009, is wrong because it is much later and cannot be the starting year. A useful exam cue is to read whether the question asks about institution or first award ceremony. Here the supplied wording and school-GK convention support 1991.
