Bharatpur Govt doctor lifts 442 kg at World Powerlifting Championship
Jaipur: Dr Deepak Singh, Head of Department of the TB ward at Raj Bahadur Memorial (RBM) Government Hospital in Bharatpur, has achieved a significant sporting feat by lifting a combined 442 kg in powerlifting, setting a record in his age category at 50.
Dr. Singh represented India in the 120-kg division at the World Power Lifting Tournament held in Sri Lanka in November, where he secured gold medals in all three segments—bench press (122 kg), squat (150 kg), and deadlift (170 kg). Despite managing family duties, government service and patient care throughout the day, he has continued to pursue competitive sports, earning multiple honours at district, state and national events.
A resident of Bharatpur, he studied at RNT Medical College, Udaipur (1995–2000) and Dr. Sampurnanand Medical College, Jodhpur, and previously attended St. Peter’s Senior Secondary School and Multipurpose Senior Secondary School in Bharatpur. His distinguished profile includes the ACCP World Chest Challenge title (2014) and gold at the WPF Powerlifting Championships (2020), reflecting his dual excellence as a clinician and a powerlifting champion.
The doctor shared in his social media post that his success is the result of local food. He is totally vegan and considers desi ghee and milk as the basis of his fitness. Dr. Deepak Singh explains that his dream was to go to the army, but he got selected to Udaipur Medical College in 1995. The first tournament held in Bharatpur in 2019 started their sports career, and then won several medals at national and international levels. After a 4-year break, he returned to the international stage by winning National Gold in 2024.
