Consider the following pairs with regard to sports awards:

1. Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna Award For the most spectacular and outstanding performance by a sportsperson over period of last four years 2. Arjuna Award For the lifetime achievement by sportsperson 3. Dronacharya Award To honour eminent coaches who have successfully trained sportspersons or teams 4. Rashtriya Khel Protsahan Puraskar To recognize the contribution made by sportspersons even after their retirement How many of the above pairs are correctly matched?

The National Sports Awards are presented annually to recognize excellence in sports.

• Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna Award: Awarded for the most spectacular and outstanding performance by a sportsperson over the previous four years. Hence, pair 1 is correctly matched.
• Arjuna Award: Awarded for good performance over the previous four years along with qualities of leadership, sportsmanship, and discipline. It is not for lifetime achievement. Hence, pair 2 is not correctly matched.
• Dronacharya Award: Awarded to coaches for outstanding and meritorious work on a consistent basis, enabling sportspersons to excel in international events. Hence, pair 3 is correctly matched.
• Rashtriya Khel Protsahan Puruskar: Awarded to corporate entities, sports control boards, and NGOs for their role in sports promotion and development, not to sportspersons after retirement.

Therefore, only two pairs are correctly matched.
