President Murmu Wishes Lovepreet And Seema To Bring More Laurels After CWG Success
Lovepreet produced a valiant performance but fell agonisingly short of the gold medal, claiming silver in the men’s +110kg weightlifting event on Thursday. He finished with a combined lift of 388kg, just 1kg behind New Zealand’s David Liti, who won gold with 389kg.
"Warm congratulations to Lovepreet Singh on clinching the silver medal in the men's 110+ kg weightlifting event at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games 2026. Your remarkable performance reflects your steadfast determination, remarkable strength and relentless pursuit of excellence. Your achievement has brought immense pride and joy to every Indian. I wish you many more laurels in the years to come," the President wrote on X.
