The correct answer is

1972

The question asks the year of the first senior National Handball Championship held at Rohtak in Haryana.

Handball, played as a fast indoor and outdoor team sport, gained an organised footing in India during the early 1970s with the formation of a national federation to govern the game.

The first senior National Handball Championship was organised at Rohtak, Haryana, in 1972.

This event marked the formal beginning of national-level competitive handball in the country and helped popularise the sport across states.

Haryana went on to become one of the strongest centres for handball in India, reflecting the significance of hosting this inaugural championship.

The years 1992, 1932 and 1942 do not correspond to this first national championship, which belongs to the early 1970s.

Hence the correct answer is 1972.
