Boxer Jaismine Lamboria has been selected as India’s flag-bearer for the closing ceremony of the Commonwealth Games 2026 in Glasgow. The honor caps a strong campaign for Lamboria, who finished the event with a gold medal.
Lamboria won the top prize in the women’s 57kg category, adding another major result to her record. She is described as a world champion boxer and a two-time Commonwealth Games medalist, making her a high-profile choice to lead the Indian contingent at the ceremony.
The decision gives Indian boxing another prominent moment at the end of the Games, with Lamboria becoming one of the standout faces of the country’s campaign. A flag-bearer role at the closing ceremony is often seen as recognition of performance as well as overall contribution during the competition.
The Glasgow finale also comes as attention begins to shift toward the next Commonwealth Games cycle. India is set to host the 2030 edition in Ahmedabad, adding extra significance to the closing ceremony as the country looks ahead to welcoming the event on home soil.
