Glasgow: It was double delight for India in the 2014 Commonwealth Games men`s weightlifting as Satish Sivalingam won the gold and Ravi Katulu the silver in the 77kg Group A at the Clyde Auditorium here late Sunday.

Satish lifted a total of 328 kg to set a Games Record while Ravi got the silver with a total lift of 317 kg.

The bronze went to Australian Francois Etoundi with a lift of 314 kg. Etoundi, who represented his country of birth Cameroon in the 2006 Commonwealth Games, sought asylum in Australia soon after the Melbourne Games.
