India added another medal at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games 2026, with weightlifter Lovepreet Singh taking silver in the men's +110kg final. Competing in the heavyweight division, Lovepreet produced a strong overall performance to finish second and secure a place on the podium.
The result gave India a notable boost in weightlifting, with Lovepreet standing out in one of the power events of the competition. His silver medal in the men's +110kg category underlined a solid showing against top opposition in Glasgow.
Elsewhere, India's athletics campaign had mixed outcomes. Sprinter Animesh Kujur saw his run end after he missed out on a place in the men's 200m final.
In the field events, shot putters Tajinderpal Singh Toor and Samardeep Singh Gill both came close but fell short of medal positions. Their finishes meant India narrowly missed adding to its tally in shot put, even as Lovepreet Singh's silver remained one of the day's key results.
