India's weightlifters are consistently doing amazing performance in the Commonwealth Games. After 19-year-old weightlifter Jeremy Lalrinnunga, male weightlifter Achinta Sheuli has done the job of getting India another gold medal by performing well in the final of the men's 73 kg weight category. In this way, India has now got 6 medals in the Commonwealth, in which 3 are gold. The most surprising thing is that all three gold medals have been achieved by the weightlifter of India. First, Mirabai Chanu gave India a gold medal in weightlifting, while on the other hand, India's weightlifter Jeremy did wonders for 19 years and gave India the second gold medal, after that Achinta also did wonders by winning the gold medal.
21-year-old Sheuli from West Bengal lifted 143 kg in snatch, which is a new Commonwealth Games record. She lifted the Commonwealth Games record by lifting a total of 313 kg, including 170 kg in clean and jerk. Shelly, who won a silver medal at the Junior World Weightlifting Championships last year, did both the best lifts in her third attempt.
Malaysia's E Hidayat Mohamed got the silver and Canada's Shad Darsigny got the bronze, who lifted 303 and 298 kg respectively.
