India ended Day 3 of the Commonwealth Games without adding to their medal tally. Boxer Sachin Siwach progressed to the next round, while lawn bowls pair Rupa Rani Tirkey and Pinki Singh maintained their unbeaten run. The artistic gymnastics team finished fifth in their subdivision event. India's swimmers were eliminated after failing to qualify for the 400m freestyle final, and the women's wheelchair basketball team suffered a heavy loss to Wales.
Jhandu Kumar claimed a bronze medal in para powerlifting at the 2026 Commonwealth Games, becoming India's first medallist at the event. He achieved successful lifts of 181kg and 190kg to secure the podium finish. Kumar's path to the Games was marked by childhood polio and years of hardship, including working as an e-rickshaw driver to finance his training. His unusual name itself carries a history of struggle and ridicule, which he has since turned into a source of pride. Looking ahead, Kumar has set his sights on record-breaking performances at the Para Asian Games and Paralympics.
