The correct answer is: A. 07 July

Sports day is celebrated every year on 07 July in India. It is a national holiday and is celebrated to commemorate the birth anniversary of Major Dhyan Chand, who is considered to be the “Father of Indian Hockey”. He was born on 07 July 1905 and died on 03 December 1979.

Major Dhyan Chand was a field hockey player who represented India at the international level from 1926 to 1948. He is considered to be one of the greatest hockey players of all time and is credited with popularizing the sport in India. He led the Indian team to three Olympic gold medals (1928, 1932, and 1936) and was the top scorer in all three tournaments. He was also the captain of the Indian team that won the gold medal at the 1932 Summer Olympics.

Major Dhyan Chand was awarded the Padma Bhushan, India’s third-highest civilian award, in 1956. He was also awarded the Padma Vibhushan, India’s second-highest civilian award, in 1961. He was posthumously awarded the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian award, in 2002.

Sports day is a day when people come together to celebrate the spirit of sportsmanship and competition. It is a day when people of all ages and abilities can participate in a variety of sporting activities. Sports day is a fun and enjoyable event that promotes healthy living and physical activity.

The other options are incorrect because they are not the dates on which sports day is celebrated in India.
