3. C. New Delhi (Correct answer)
4. D. Bangalore

Correct Answer

Option C — New Delhi

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer is New Delhi.

Key Points

• The Dr. Shyama Prasad Mookerjee Swimming Pool Complex is located in New Delhi, within the Talkatora sports precinct.
• It is among the capital's principal aquatics venues and has hosted national-level swimming competitions.

Additional Information

• Other major Delhi sporting venues frequently asked together: the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium (athletics), the Indira Gandhi Arena, the Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium (hockey) and the Arun Jaitley Stadium, formerly Feroz Shah Kotla (cricket).
• Delhi hosted the 1951 and 1982 Asian Games and the 2010 Commonwealth Games, which is why so many national stadiums are concentrated there.
• Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee also lends his name to the Chenani-Nashri Tunnel in Jammu & Kashmir — the same name attached to two very different structures, and a common source of confusion.
