Step 1: Note the achievement described.
Payal Nag, a quadruple amputee, became the world's first international archer from India to win a gold medal, a remarkable feat.
Step 2: Eliminate the other states.
Orissa, Kerala and Ladakh have produced many sportspersons but Payal Nag is not associated with any of these states.
Step 3: Recall her actual home state.
Payal Nag hails from Assam, and her achievement brought special recognition to para-sports from the state.
