NDTV World Summit: "State Govts Need To Recognize Chess Players' Effort"

Following India's historic double gold at the 45th Chess Olympiad in 2024, two stars of the women's team -- Tania Sachdev and Vantika Agrawal -- sat down in a candid chat at the NDTV World Summit. "Unless the state comes forward to recognize the effort of players, how are you going to inspire the youth?" said Sachdev, as she spoke on how she was Delhi's only chess representative for 16 years. Sachdev and Agrawal also reminisced on the victorious day, on pre-planned celebrations and on the pipeline for young players in India.

As the Hon'ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi settles into his third term, India's global influence continues to expand, reshaping both geopolitical dynamics and economic landscapes. Amidst ongoing conflicts in Europe and West Asia, India has emerged as a responsible global power, adeptly navigating complex international relations and offering leadership.

In this transformative era, the world turns to India for guidance. It is within this context that NDTV proudly presents its flagship event, NDTV World Summit 2024 – The India Century, scheduled for October 21st and 22nd.

Continuing NDTV’s legacy of pioneering media, we will also launch NDTV World at the summit, with the tagline: "Seeing the World from Where India Stands." NDTV World aims to be a leading voice from Asia and India on the global stage.
