i am happy for all games played in our country other than cricket .i am delighted and have prayers that you keep the title for another 20 years.a normal Indian is supposed to retire at the age of 60.keep the indian flag high
Congratulations Viswanathan Anand. Your win is glorious, unbeatable and wonderful. Despite the very tire some 40 hours bus journey, you could come on top with flying colours. To the Viswa (world) of Chess you are the true Nath (the reigning champion).
In my assessment and opinion Viswanathan Anand is one of the best bet and best candidate as far as sports are concerned for conferring Bharat Ratna on him. Because he is FOUR times world chess champion and 11 times world chess champion in the rapid format of chess apart from his many world class achievements in chess. And also he is the only player in the world to win in all formats (game, match and knockout) the world title. And finally and most importantly Chess was born and originated in India and by the Indians. And he is the first Indian to be the world champion in this Indians invented game.
Dear Anand, Great going ! Keep it up. It really really is wonderful of you to have done it once again inspite of all the initial problems regarding travelling etc.You have kept the FLAG flying and made us all hold our head high.May you continue to win always. Very many congratulations once again. Take care & God Bless You.
