India Names 125-Member Contingent for Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games
India is set to compete at the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games (July 23–August 2, 2026) with a 191-member contingent, including 125 athletes (77 men and 48 women) and 51 team officials. The Sports Ministry has approved the squad for a streamlined program featuring just 10 sports.
Key Highlights of the Indian Contingent
Star Power at the Helm: The team is led by Olympic champions and medalists, including Neeraj Chopra (Javelin Throw), Mirabai Chanu (Weightlifting), and Lovlina Borgohain (Boxing).
A Leaner, Meaner Field: Glasgow 2026 introduces a significantly reduced roster of just 10 sports — down from the 19 featured at Birmingham 2022 — making the competition tighter than ever. India will field athletes across 8 able-bodied sports plus a combined Para Sports program spanning 5 events.
Strong Athletic & Para Presence: In addition to powerhouse squads in Weightlifting, Boxing, and Athletics, India is sending highly competitive teams in Judo, Lawn Bowls, Artistic Gymnastics, Track Cycling, and Swimming, alongside a robust Para Sports program.
The Challenge Ahead: After a record 61-medal haul at Birmingham 2022, the Indian squad faces a tougher challenge in Glasgow. With fewer events overall, every discipline becomes critical for podium finishes and maintaining India’s growing momentum in Commonwealth sports.
