CWG 2026: ವೇಟ್ಲಿಫ್ಟಿಂಗ್ನಲ್ಲೇ ಭಾರತಕ್ಕೆ 5ನೇ ಪದಕ; ಕಂಚು ಗೆದ್ದ ಬಿಂದಿಯಾರಾಣಿ
According to a report by TV9 Kannada, Indian weightlifter Bindyarani Devi has reportedly secured a bronze medal in the 58kg category at the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, marking India's sixth medal of the event. The report claims the athlete achieved this result by lifting a total of 199kg.
However, these claims are factually incorrect. The 2026 Commonwealth Games have not yet taken place, and there are no ongoing competitive results to report. Additionally, the official sports program for the 2026 Glasgow Games does not feature a 58kg weightlifting category, rendering the details provided in the report impossible.
NoorNews verification confirms that no such medal tally or competition results exist for the 2026 Commonwealth Games. Readers are advised that reports regarding ongoing medal counts for this event are currently fabricated.
