The 16-year-old lifter broke the Youth World, Asian and Commonwealth records in the snatch category with a lift of 136 kgs. He was competing in the 67-kg category.
Jeremy Lalrinnunga, a Youth Olympics gold medallist from Mizoram broke three records at the Commonwealth Weightlifting Championship this Thursday.
Despite breaking these records, the lifter failed to register a clean and jerk lift, and hence was unable to register a total lift score at the gold level Olympic qualifying event. These points are important as they will be considered in the final rankings for the Tokyo 2020 cut.
