Olympic medallist Mirabai Chanu returned to New Delhi with India’s weightlifting contingent after a successful run at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games 2026. The star lifter expressed her happiness at winning another medal for the country, capping off another strong appearance on the Commonwealth stage.
Chanu’s latest triumph stands out because it gave her a third successive Commonwealth Games gold medal. That achievement adds another major chapter to her career and underlines her consistency in international competition for India.
The homecoming also highlighted the broader success of India’s weightlifting team in Glasgow. With the contingent back in the capital after the campaign, attention has naturally focused on the contribution of experienced performers such as Chanu, who once again delivered when it mattered.
Her result is likely to be seen as one of the key moments of India’s Commonwealth Games weightlifting campaign. For Indian sport, Chanu’s third CWG gold further strengthens her reputation as one of the country’s most reliable medal winners.
