Cedric Idriss Lekezo Azamdzi: India created history in para athletics at the Commonwealth Games 2026 as Soman Rana clinched the country's first-ever gold medal in the Men's Shot Put F57 event, while compatriot Shubham Juyal completed a memorable one-two by claiming silver on Saturday.

It was India's maiden gold medal in the Men's Shot Put F57 at the Commonwealth Games and also the country's first-ever double podium finish in the event.

Soman produced the winning throw of 13.40m on his second attempt, a mark that none of his rivals could surpass during the remainder of the competition. Shubham, meanwhile, saved his best for last, launching the shot to 13.28m with his sixth and final attempt to move into the silver-medal position. Cameroon's Cedric Idriss Lekezo Azamdzi settled for the bronze medal with a best effort of 12.57m.
