Weightlifting has been one of the most closely followed sports for Indian fans at the Commonwealth Games 2026 in Glasgow, with the competition producing a steady stream of medals across the early days of the Games — catch up on the full squad report if you’re just tuning in. Mirabai Chanu’s gold in the women’s 48kg category set the tone, followed by a string of silver and bronze finishes from her teammates.
Recent results have included Harjinder Kaur’s silver in the women’s 69kg category (more in women’s weightlifting results today), which came shortly after Nirupama Devi’s narrow miss in the 63kg event ended a run of podium finishes for the Indian team. Earlier results saw Rishikanta Singh, Muthupandi Raja, Gyaneshwari Yadav, Valluri Ajaya Babu and Bindyarani Devi all add to India’s growing weightlifting medal count — see the full medal list for details, plus men’s weightlifting finals today for the latest on the men’s categories.
