Commonwealth Games 2026 Day 6 Live Updates: A day after enjoying its most successful outing of this Commonwealth Games, India returns to action with renewed confidence and several medal opportunities across multiple disciplines. Monday belonged to the Indian contingent, which collected six medals, highlighted by Sharmila Dhankar’s historic gold in the women’s F57 shot put — India’s first-ever para-athletics gold medal at the Commonwealth Games. Silver medals from Sarvesh Kushare, Valluri Ajaya Babu and Gyaneshwari Yadav, along with bronze medals by Shilpa K. Shyla and Bindyarani Devi, lifted India’s overall tally to 10.

Attention now turns to Tuesday, where the challenge is to build on that momentum. Weightlifting once again offers India’s strongest medal prospects, with Nirupama Devi Seram and Harjinder Kaur competing in their respective finals after the discipline delivered multiple podium finishes on the previous day.

The boxing ring promises another crucial session as Preeti Pawar, Priya Ghanghas, Parveen Hooda, Jadumani Singh and Kapil Pokhariya contest quarterfinal bouts. Victory in any of those matches will guarantee at least a bronze medal, making it one of India’s busiest and most important events of the day.

Athletics also presents medal opportunities, with Pooja Singh featuring in the women’s high jump final and Gulveer Singh lining up in the men’s 10,000m final. Earlier in the day, Vishal TK and Rajesh Ramesh will compete in the men’s 400m heats.

Swimming and para swimming complete India’s schedule, with Sajan Prakash and Srihari Nataraj targeting semifinal places, while Karthik Budigina and Ali Imam begin their campaigns in the men’s 50m freestyle S13 event.

After a memorable Monday that produced history and six medals, the Indian contingent will be eager to keep the momentum going as another packed day of competition unfolds in Glasgow.
