Mirabai Chanu and Jeremy Lalrinnunga along with their team are bringing India back from the abyss of weightlifting

weightlifting medal
Share on FacebookShare on X

The sport of weightlifting was one of the first sports included in the first Edition of the Olympic Games in 1896 in the men’s section whereas the women’s section was introduced in the Sydney Olympics in 2000. In the very first edition of the women’s section of weightlifting in the 2000 Summer Olympics at Sydney, Karnam Malleswari clinched a bronze medal. She was the first Indian woman to win an Olympic medal.

After Malleswari’s win at the Olympics, it was expected that weightlifting in India would see a new dawn. But, successive doping menace broke all the dreams. Indian Weightlifting Federation (IWLF) was banned by International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) thrice in 2004, 2006, and 2009. Further, to participate in the 2010 Commonwealth Games in New Delhi, India had to pay a whopping penalty of Rs 2 crores. The successive threat suspension affected players as well IWLF morale and derailed Indian weightlifting programs on the world stage. However, recent results of weightlifting show that Indians are now back from the weightlifting abyss.
