Investigation finds uneven promotion of Commonwealth Games medals by Indian states; Rajasthan's last Facebook post was in 2012

An investigation published on August 11, 2026, found that India's states, which had celebrated 39 Commonwealth Games medals, vary widely in how their sports departments promote those achievements.

The probe examined the social-media activity of state sports bodies and identified gaps, citing Rajasthan's last Facebook post in 2012, Manipur's silence, and limited outreach from Haryana.

States like Tamil Nadu were noted for consistently promoting grassroots athletes on social media.
