Congratulations @chessvaishali . She showed excellent preparation and resilience. Took the blows & delivered the punches. A proud moment for Indian chess with two Indians to cheer for in the World Championships. Personally proud that our @WacaChess mentee will now have a shot at the world title. Being from Chennai is just another flex !
Her 23-yr-old son Sahil killed by speeding Scorpio driven by a minor.
Minor taken before Delhi Juvenile Board, then given bail to take 10th Board Exam.
The Scorpio had 13 challans for overspeeding.
Sahil’s grieving mother @inna_makan joined me live:
1983 inspired an entire generation to dream big and chase those dreams. 🏏
Today, our Women’s Cricket Team has done something truly special. They have inspired countless young girls across the country to pick up a bat and ball, take the field and believe that they too can lift that trophy one day. 🏆
This is a defining moment in the journey of Indian women’s cricket.
Well done, Team India. You’ve made the whole nation proud. 🇮🇳 💙
Congratulations! It's a proud moment for chess, a proud moment for India, a proud moment for WACA, and for me, a very personal moment of pride. Ding played a very exciting match and showed the champion he is.
