Correct answer: B

National Technology Day is 11 May, and the awards are announced on that day.
The award ceremony is held on 23 August, which is National Space Day.
28 February is National Science Day, a third Indian observance and not the one the announcement is tied to.

Worth noting

The award uses two Indian science days for two different stages, announcement and ceremony, which is a neat way to hold both dates at once.
