Former world champion Viswanathan Anand and five other prominent Indian players will participate in an online chess exhibition match on April 11 to raise money for the country's fight against Kovid-19. Indian players will meet players from all over the world through the Chase.com portal.
Apart from Anand, India's top two women players Koneru Hampi and Dronavalli Harika will take part in the competition along with India's number two players Vidit S Gujarati, P Harikrishna, Bhaskaran Adhiban (all grandmasters). The event will be telecast live on Chesdatakam / TV where all donations made will be given to the 'PM Cares' fund. Anand is currently in Germany due to travel restrictions due to the Corona virus epidemic.
At least $ 150 has to be donated to ensure the game against Anand. However, by registering for $ 25, players can play against two of the six Indian players, which can also be a pleasure. There are only five places left to play against Anand. Apart from this, the three people who donated the most will get a chance to play against Anand.
