CWG 2026: PM Modi Congratulates Lovepreet, Seema On Medal-winning Performance
Prime Minister Narendra Modi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday congratulated Indian weightlifter Lovepreet Singh and discus thrower Seema Kaliramna for winning silver and bronze medals respectively at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, praising their determination and wishing them success in the future.
Lovepreet produced a spirited performance in the men’s +110kg weightlifting event but narrowly missed out on the gold medal, finishing with a combined lift of 388kg, just one kilogram behind New Zealand’s David Liti, who claimed the title with 389kg. The Indian lifter also set a new Commonwealth Games record in the snatch competition.
“Exceptional performance by Lovepreet Singh for winning a Silver in the Men’s +110kg event. His outstanding effort in the snatch set a new Commonwealth Games record too. His dedication and determination are truly admirable. My best wishes to him for the endeavours ahead,” Modi wrote on X.
