PATNA: At the tender age of 3 when most kids sit glued to TV
sets watching cartoon channels, she made her first move on the chessboard in a
state-level competition.
The youngest participant playing in a state or a national
tournament ever, has indeed created a flutter.
Pari Sinha, a three-year-two-month old Patna girl, took part
in the state Chess Championships in the Under-7 age group category held at
Kishanganj.
Amazingly, she had a podium finish in her debut claiming the
third position.
“It’s a record of a sort for state chess,” said All Bihar
Chess Association (ABCA) secretary Arvind Kumar Sinha.
“I will write to All India Chess Federation (AICF) to get it
ratified on the issue of national record,” he remarked.
“The love and passion shown by the little girl for chess is
commendable. The ABCA will extend all possible help to Pari to develop her
skills,” he said.
“You just can’t believe it if you do not watch how she plays
the game,” said proud father Jay Prakash Sinha, a businessman by profession and
an ardent lover of the oldest game of India.
Born in a family of chess players, Pari Sinha loves chess
more than any thing. Her father played chess several state tournaments while
her uncle Ved Prakash Sinha, is a reputed national player with FIDE rating at
2100. “Pari learnt the basics of the game from her uncle Ved, who
is instrumental in bringing Pari to this exercise of the mind”, Jay Said.
“Pari is well versed with initial positioning of the pieces
and moves. She knows how to go ahead with the next moves”, Sinha remarked.
A student of pre-nursery at Hello Kids – Little Champs, a
school located in Kumharar locality of the city, Pari gets the training from
local chess coach Subendu Chakraborty, who is a also a national player.
“On an average, Pari spends more than one hour daily on the
chess board,” Sinha said, adding, that they do not want to put pressure on Pari
to play the game for a longer period.
Though Pari is yet to sketch her dream, Jay wants her
daughter to play chess like Vishanathan Anand.
What Pari loves most is to play the game against her uncle
Ved Prakash. “I hope one day Pari will beat me in a tournament,” Ved said.
