India’s Gyaneshwari Yadav continued the country’s impressive run in weightlifting as she bagged India’s fourth medal in weightlifting and fifth overall after winning the silver medal in the women’s 53kg weightlifting event.
The medals keep coming for the Indian weightlifting contingent at the 2026 Commonwealth Games. India won its fourth straight medal in the discipline on Monday after Gyaneshwari Yadav won silver in the women’s 53kg category. She is now the fourth Indian weightlifter after Rishikanta Singh (silver), Mirabai Chanu (gold) and Raja Muthupandi (silver) to walk away on the podium in the 23rd edition of the Commonwealth Games.
Yadav started the Clean and Jerk portion with a lift of 103kg before Didih lifted 105 kg. The Indian would go one better with her second effort lifting 107kg but the Nigerian weightlifter lifted 110kg. The third and final attempt saw Yadav lift 111 kg which secured her the silver.
