Nine companies showed interest for the much anticipated Indian Chess League and AICF formed a five member screening committee for the same.

Jaipur: The Central Council and Special General Body meeting of All India Chess Federation (AICF) held at Jaipur on Thursday took some major decisions for the development of the game in the country.

Nine companies showed interest for the much anticipated Indian Chess League and AICF formed a five member screening committee for the same.

In another major development, All India Chess Federation provisionally affiliated with the Indian Olympic Association while a National Chess Academy will be established at Odisha to provide exposure and training facilities for the players from across the country. 

It is also decided to create a welfare fund for the benefit of players and arbiters. Currently AICF is providing assistance for Covid-19 through the Checkmate Covid program and the surplus fund in this project will be merged to this welfare fund.

Further, AICF decided to train two arbiters, two organizers and four players in each district of the country and Rs. 50 lakh has been allocated for this grass root level project.

The term ‘Open’ has been removed from the national championship and now the events will be called the National Championship.

The house extended its gratitude to the FIDE President Arkady Dvorkovich for providing wild cards to Indian players in the World Cup and FIDE Grand Prix.
