Forum on Chess
It would not be wrong to define chess as an Indian traditional game. Better known as Chaturanga in the Gupta period, this game was further modified by the Persians. They called it ‘Shatranj.’ Even today a game of chess is as engrossing for the Indians as it was for their ancestors. In fact after the success of Vishwanathan Anand more and more youngsters are showing interest in this indoor sport.
