The four golds mark an improvement from the 2022 edition in Hangzhou, China, where sportspersons from the State helped India secure three gold medals.

Karnataka’s gold medallists this time were Pranavi Urs in women’s individual golf, M.R. Poovamma in the women’s 4x400m relay, H.S. Mohith in men’s hockey and Shreyanka Patil in women’s cricket.
