[00:06:21] News.
[00:06:25] Now let's talk about the Commonwealth Games medalists. Union Sports Minister Mansukh
[00:06:28] Mandaviya honored the Indian weightlifters
[00:06:32] who performed brilliantly in the Glasgow Commonwealth Games.
[00:06:35] In the Glasgow Commonwealth Games, India participated in 11 weightlifting
[00:06:39] events and won one gold,
[00:07:12] the 2030 Commonwealth
[00:07:15] Games are going to be held in India.
[00:07:20] the 2036 Olympics.
[00:07:21] Many international tournaments
[00:07:24] are being organized in India today.
[00:07:27] You must have read in the newspaper that just yesterday
[00:07:30] the Indian cabinet approved 36 thousand
[00:07:34] crore rupees
[00:07:36] for sports development. There will be no shortage
[00:07:40] of resources for you.
[00:07:42] Whatever needs to be done for you to play
[00:07:46] and flourish,
[00:07:50] everything. In the Glasgow Commonwealth Games,
[00:07:53] India won one gold,
[00:07:57] six silver, and one bronze
[00:08:00] medal in weightlifting. Mirabai Chanu
[00:08:04] led the Indian weightlifting contingent
[00:08:07] and won a gold medal in the Commonwealth Games
[00:08:11] for the third consecutive time. When we get respect,
[00:08:15] it makes us the happiest that medals
[00:08:18] are a part of our life as players. So, whenever we go to any
[00:08:21] competition, we try to bring something for India.
[00:08:25] But this love that the people
[00:08:28] of India show us is a huge achievement
[00:08:32] for us. So, I am very happy that
[00:08:36] I have given this third gold medal to India.
[00:08:39] So, I am very happy. Many times
[00:09:42] they have to decide, work very hard and those who have not received medals should
[00:09:46] not give up. In sports it always happens like
[00:09:49] this. Even Mira was eliminated in the Olympics for the first time.
[00:09:53] So this is the life of a player, winning and losing goes on,
[00:09:57] but do not give up, work harder and prepare
[00:10:00] for our next competitions and prove yourself in them.
[00:10:04] Indian weightlifters won medals in the Glasgow Commonwealth Games
[00:10:08] participating in a total of 11 events and out of these 8
[00:10:11] events
[00:10:25] honored the Indian boxing contingent
[00:10:28] that won medals in the Glasgow Commonwealth Games.
[00:10:32] During this, all the medalists including Preeti Panwar, Lovlina
[00:10:36] Borgohain, Jasmine Lamboriya and Sakshi Chaudhary
[00:10:39] were honored for their outstanding performance. During interactions with the players
[00:10:43] and their coaches, the boxers shared their experiences
[00:10:47] of the Commonwealth Games and discussed their future goals.
[00:10:50] They assured the players that the government and the Sports
[00:10:56] all possible support to achieve
[00:10:59] the goal of winning medals in these competitions.
[00:11:03] The country has very high expectations from you.
[00:11:06] We have to set new goals every time
[00:11:10] and strive to achieve these goals. Now the Asian
[00:11:14] Games, we have to bring home gold in the Asian Games.
[00:11:19] for Asian, now your morale is boosted
[00:11:23] and you should not be demoralized at all.
[00:11:29] Indian boxer Sakshi Chaudhary, who won a gold medal in the 51 kg
[00:11:33] category at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games, impressed everyone
[00:11:36] with her strong performance. In a special interview with DD News
[00:11:40] correspondent Abhishek Mahajan, Sakshi spoke openly
[00:11:44] about her victory, her struggles, and her future goals. CWG gold medalist
[00:11:48] Sakshi Chaudhary is with us.
[00:11:51] Thank you for talking to us. First
[00:11:55] because for me of all, how big is this victory for you
[00:11:57] and how satisfying is it? This is a very proud moment
[00:12:03] I have been training in boxing for the last 14 years
[00:12:07] every day with discipline and dedication.
[00:12:10] So today I got the fruit of this hard work. I won a gold medal in the Commonwealth
[00:12:13] Games, so I am very happy. You dominated
[00:12:17] all the bouts, Sakshi. Everyone was also
[00:12:20] saying that from the first round itself, it seemed that Sakshi was going to win.
[00:12:24] So what is the reason for such a dominant performance? The preparations?
[00:12:28] Because I worked so hard, I worked so hard in my trials.
[00:12:32] I performed very well, and then after that, the Czech
[00:12:36] Republic, everyone was also saying that from the first round itself, it seemed
[00:12:40] that Sakshi was going to win. So what is the reason for such a dominant
[00:12:43] performance? The preparations? Because I worked so hard,
[00:12:47] I performed very well in my trials. Then after that, I cleared
[00:12:51] the Czech Republic bout. And my last bout
[00:12:54] was against Ruby White, an English boxer. She had not lost a single match yet.
[00:12:58] So, my final bout was against her,
[00:13:01] and I won that by 5-0. When the Indian flag was going
[00:13:05] up, tell us about that moment.
[00:13:09] That moment doesn't come again and again.
[00:13:12] Tell us about it. It is the dream of all athletes
[00:13:15] that we are in the arena, our national anthem is played,
[00:13:18] and our tricolor goes to the top. So, I cannot express
[00:13:22] that moment in words. It is such a special moment for us.
[00:13:26] We control our emotions at that time.
[00:13:30] With cameraman Mohit Vicky, Abhishek Mahajan, DD News,
[00:13:32] Delhi.

[00:14:31] Welcome back after the break.
[00:14:36] Indian para-athletes performed brilliantly
[00:14:39] at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games. In the men's
[00:14:43] shotput F 57 event, Subedar Soman Rana
[00:14:46] of the Indian Army successfully won a gold medal.
[00:14:49] Meanwhile, Sharmila Dhankhar also won a medal in the women's
[00:14:53] shotput F 57 event
[00:14:55] of para-athletics. We have Soman Rana and Sharmila Dhankhar with us.
[00:14:59] You won gold in the 57 shotput. Sharmila Dhankhar also won
[00:15:02] her first gold in para-athletics. How big an achievement is this?
[00:15:06] We are very happy because it's a great platform
[00:15:10] to bring a gold medal for the country. And there was no gold medal
[00:15:14] in 57 yet, but there was no gold medal
[00:15:18] in para-athletics either. Now we have brought three gold, two silver,
[00:15:21] and one bronze for India. We feel very proud about this.
[00:15:25] We are very happy. Sharmila ji, what would you like
[00:15:29] to say? You brought the first gold for India in para-athletics. What would
[00:15:32] you like to say? I am very happy that our country got gold.
[00:15:36] Yes, this is India's first gold in para-athletics,
[00:15:40] and I am very happy. You have inspired many younger
[00:15:43] generations who lose hope. What message would you like to give them and
[00:15:47] tell us a little about your journey? I am from the Indian Army.
[00:15:50] I am serving in the 2nd Gorkha Rifles,
[00:15:54] and my journey in the army started in 2001.
[00:15:58] And my mind blast happened in 2006.
[00:16:01] After that, I had a gap
[00:16:03] of a few years. Then from 2017
[00:16:37] that at this age, under these circumstances, we can fight and bring gold.
[00:16:41] So the younger generation has every facility, both from the government
[00:16:44] and as we know from social media,
[00:16:48] children know everything about sports. So they should bring more
[00:16:52] medals than us. All the best to both of you. We hope
[00:16:55] that you will bring more medals for India. With cameraman Mohit
[00:16:59] Uike, Abhishek Mahajan, DD News,
[00:17:01] Delhi.
[00:17:05] Now let's talk about badminton. The draws for the World Badminton
[00:17:09] Championship, to be held in New Delhi from August 17 to 23, have been announced.
[00:17:13] In men's singles, Ayush Shetty will face
[00:17:17] the reigning world champion Shi Yuqi of China
[00:17:19] in the first round. Meanwhile, PV Sindhu,
[00:17:23] India's strong medal contender in the World Badminton Championship,
[00:17:26] will take on Sophia Noble of Ireland in the first round.
[00:17:30] Much is expected from Sindhu, especially at a time
[00:17:34] when she recently won the Japan Open
[00:17:37] title.
[00:17:39] Top shuttlers will show
[00:17:42] their mettle, and there will be a fierce battle
[00:17:45] for victory. Delhi is ready to host
[00:17:49] the World Badminton Championship. In such a situation,
[00:17:53] the suspense of who will face whom has also been lifted.
[00:17:56] Olympic medalist and recently Japan Open title winner PV
[00:18:00] Sindhu and Lakshya Sen, who won a bronze medal
[00:18:04] at the 2021 World Badminton Championship, both have received an easy draw.
[00:18:07] It doesn't seem like Sindhu will face any difficulty until the semifinals.
[00:18:11] Sindhu will start her campaign by taking on Sophia Noble of Ireland.
[00:18:15] Meanwhile, Lakshya Sen will take on Collins Valentine
[00:18:17] of Austria. However, Ayush Shetty
[00:18:21] has received a tough draw, where he will face
[00:18:24] world champion Shi Yuqi of China in the first round itself.
[00:18:28] In men's doubles, the fifth-seeded pair of Satwik and Chirag
[00:18:32] has received a bye in the first round. I think overall
[00:18:35] it looks like a
[00:18:37] opens up the draw much better, so... good draw from Indian perspective,
[00:18:40] and yes, one of the big first rounds would be
[00:18:44] Shi Yuqi versus Ayush Shetty.
[00:18:48] That I do believe that Ayush
[00:18:52] is very good, and this attacking style of game,
[00:18:55] first round against Shi Yuqi is
[00:18:58] better than playing him later in the draw.
[00:19:02] So I think from that perspective, if he wins that it
[00:19:37] the Indian contingent is fully prepared for this. The World Championship
[00:19:41] is returning to the country after 17 years. In such a situation, what will be
[00:19:45] India's performance level in this competition, and in what ways will
[00:19:48] this competition serve as a big platform
[00:19:52] for preparation for the Asian Games? Our correspondent Gaurav
[00:19:55] Kumar had a special conversation with Pullela Gopichand,
[00:19:59] the coach of the Indian badminton team, on all this. The draws for the World
[00:20:03] Badminton Championship have been released, and at this moment, we have Pullela
[00:20:06] Gopichand, the Chief Coach of the Indian Badminton team, with us.
[00:20:10] Pullela ji, the World Badminton Championship is returning to our country
[00:20:13] after a very long time. So the first question is that
[00:20:17] it happened in 2009, and now it's happening. How big a difference do you find?
[00:20:21] I think overall, if we look at
[00:20:25] our country as a sporting nation, it's quite big.
[00:20:28] And if we look at badminton as well,
[00:20:31] we had never won a medal in the World Championship in 2009.
[00:20:35] But after that,
[00:20:43] to we are as nation looking a different country with the different
[00:20:47] aspirations and very happy to see the world championship come back. Here to India
[00:20:51] with lot more Indian players aspiring to do
[00:20:54] well and finish at the podium. What would you say about the draw,
[00:20:57] especially the draw between Shi Yuqi and Ayush Shetty?
[00:21:01] So, we can say that a tough opponent
[00:21:05] has been found because Ayush Shetty will be against the world number one.
[00:21:08] I think although it's world number one, I believe
[00:21:12] that it will be a very close contest,
[00:21:16] and Ayush Shetty has a good chance of winning.
[00:21:20] I believe so. And it's better to face
[00:21:23] a player like Shi Yuqi in the first round.
[00:21:27] And if you clear that, the draw is quite clear.
[00:21:30] And I'm hopeful that we can go further in
[00:21:34] that. If we look at PV Sindhu's overall performance,
[00:21:37] what level of performance do you see now,
[00:21:41] and how do you judge her in terms of consistency? I think both, I think the
[00:21:45] way she played in the semifinals against Chen Yufei and then
[00:21:48] Yamaguchi in the final. I think both are fantastic performances
[00:21:51] and I am sure it gives her lot of confidence coming into the world
[00:21:55] championship and with the experience she has and I am
[00:21:59] sure with the confidence of playing well in Japan I'm sure
[00:22:03] she'll be quite a formidable force in the
[00:22:06] Delhi World Championships.
[00:22:09] Asian Games are next month, and before that, she is getting to play
[00:22:12] this big competition. This is also a big tournament,
[00:22:16] and Asian Games are also very important
[00:22:18] for us. So I am sure
[00:22:22] if she performs in these conditions, this World Championship
[00:22:25] will serve as a preparation and confidence booster for the Asian Games.
[00:22:29] Thank you very much. So, it will definitely
[00:22:33] be a confidence booster, that is what Pullela Gopichand believes.
[00:22:37] But along with that, he also believes and puts forward
[00:22:40] that every championship has its own importance,
[00:22:44] and with time, continuous improvement
[00:22:47] is seen in it. With cameraman Ashish, I am Gaurav Mahajan,

[00:24:23] So, just like Sir Ram Singh Yadav Sir guides us,
[00:24:26] that's how we are able to win. Behind every success
[00:24:30] is the hand of our coach.
[00:24:34] A large number of players from across the country have come to participate
[00:24:37] in the All India Independence Cup Karate Championship currently underway in Delhi.
[00:24:41] Karate India President Bharat Sharma believes that this tournament
[00:24:44] provides an international platform for players,
[00:24:48] where young players get
[00:24:51] with international level players. Watch this special
[00:24:54] interview with our correspondent
[00:24:56] Sushil Kumar.
[00:24:59] The All India Independence Cup Karate Championship is being organized
[00:25:02] at Talkatora Stadium in Delhi, in which a large number
[00:25:06] of players from almost 29 states and more than 2,000 players
[00:25:09] are participating. Along with that,
[00:25:13] ITBP players, CISF players, Assam
[00:25:15] Rifles players, Indian Army players,
[00:25:19] and players from many
[00:25:22] other forces are also participating. These kinds of tournaments
[00:25:28] Through this platform, children
[00:25:32] can prepare themselves for national and international
[00:25:35] level. This tournament is equivalent to
[00:25:38] international and national level because all the referees
[00:25:42] and judges in it are internationally
[00:25:45] qualified. Along with that, the best players of our country
[00:25:51] who are national champions, international level players,
[00:25:54] all of them are playing here. So when
[00:25:58] all those children play, all the other children get
[00:26:02] an opportunity to grow by playing with them. There are all kinds of schemes,
[00:26:05] and large funds are being released
[00:26:08] Do you think that the crowd
[00:26:11] we are seeing on this platform, the participation of players
[00:26:15] we are seeing, can be seen as an encouragement?
[00:26:18] Yes, absolutely. This is
[00:26:21] the dream of these players, and as a federation,
[00:26:25] our job is to fulfill their dreams, and whatever we can
[00:26:28] do for them, I say today, apart from money,
[00:26:32] the government gives money. Then after winning medals,
[00:26:36] it gives it as a reward. If they perform well
[00:26:39] in the government, their future is also secure.
[00:26:43] It is obvious that on one hand, the government
[00:26:46] is eager for the development of sports in the country, all kinds
[00:26:50] of funds are being released, many schemes have been launched
[00:26:53] to make the lives of players easier, and to take their game
[00:26:57] to the next level. On the other hand, the federation
[00:27:00] is also leaving no stone unturned
[00:27:36] In Karnataka, BJP and JDS have decided to take out
[00:27:39] a joint padyatra in protest against the Congress government's
[00:27:42] proposed Bidadi Township project. This padyatra
[00:27:46] will start from Bidadi for 3 days on August 9,
[00:27:50] 10, and 11.
[00:27:54] JDS leader Nikhil Kumaraswamy in the protest. Opposition parties BJP and JDS
[00:27:58] today decided to coordinate to strategize against
[00:28:01] the Karnataka Congress government. Both parties will jointly raise
[00:28:05] issues against the government
[00:28:07] inside and outside the assembly.
[00:28:11] In Jharkhand, the All India Students' Council took to the streets
[00:28:15] and tight security arrangements were made. Protesting students demanded
[00:28:18] the cancellation of all controversial examinations and a CBI inquiry.
[00:28:22] They sharply attacked the working style of the state government.
[00:28:25] BJP National President
[00:28:29] Nitin Naveen participated in the World Brotherhood Blood
[00:28:33] Donation Mahabhiyan 2026 organized at the Om Shanti Retreat
[00:28:37] Center (ORC) in Gurugram. During this, he said that
[00:28:40] India has the largest young population in the world.
[00:28:44] The energy of the young population should be channeled in the right direction,
[00:28:48] which is why the government is continuously trying to connect
[00:28:51] with the youth for the drug-free India campaign. He said that
[00:28:55] by 2047, we will definitely fulfill the resolve
[00:28:59] of a developed India with this young generation.
[00:29:04] A special initiative of India has come to light from UN Geneva.
[00:29:07] India has presented its five national birds,
[00:29:11] peacocks, to the United Nations Geneva. Glimpses of this special
[00:29:14] ceremony were shared on India's UN Geneva official social media
[00:29:18] platform X. Through this special gift,
[00:29:23] conservation, and its partnership with the UN are depicted.
[00:29:27] The special thing is that India had also gifted a pair of peacocks
[00:29:31] to UN Geneva in 1981.

[00:29:46] and adjust the sum according to your goals.
