Mirabai Chanu Wins India's first CWG 2026 Gold Medal, her 3rd in CWG

It wasn't just another gold medal for Mirabai Chanu — it was a night of record-breaking dominance. The Indian weightlifting star walked away with four records in the women's 48kg event.

She first set a new Commonwealth Games snatch record with 82kg before raising the bar to 85kg, which established a new Commonwealth snatch record. In the clean and jerk, Mirabai's successful 105kg lift created a new Commonwealth Games record, and her combined 190kg total also became a new Commonwealth Games total record.

A historic night for one of India's greatest weightlifters, who capped it off with a third consecutive Commonwealth Games gold medal.

India’s access to Anthropic’s frontier AI model Mythos is delayed due to a dispute over testing location. Anthropic wants Indian entities to send code to its US cloud for testing, but India insists on local infrastructure over data residency and security concerns. The deadlock reflects India’s push for sovereign AI, and means rollout under Project Glasswing is on hold pending agreement on deployment and regulatory clearances. #Ai

The Indian Army has floated a Make-II Project proposal to procure indigenous drone-mounted radars that can "see through" dense foliage for counter-insurgency ops in J&K and the Northeast. The lightweight drones should weigh under 20kg, fly 60-120 min with 5-10km range, and provide real-time data to troops. The Army wants 60% indigenous content and will buy systems that meet technical requirements. #Defence #Drones

The Centre has scrapped its ₹10,000-crore ATF Price Stabilisation Fund after no airline signed the required MoU with oil companies.
