India’s best performances came in weightlifting (10 medals), wrestling (12 medals), and table tennis (7 medals). Notably, PV Sindhu (badminton) and Mirabai Chanu (weightlifting) won gold.
While India improved its gold count from 2018 (26 to 22), it slipped from 3rd to 4th due to Canada’s stronger showing. The games marked India’s 10th consecutive top-5 finish since 2002.
