It is a matter of great pride that the 44th Chess Olympiad will be hosted by India at Mahabalipuram, Chennai from 28th July to 10th August 2022.

The dream come true event for every chess lover in India is being organized by All India Chess Federation and supported by the Government of Tamil Nadu.

To celebrate the occasion, we are pleased to inform you that All India Chess Federation, through the respective state chess association is taking this opportunity to popularize chess at grass root level across the country by organizing a state level chess tournament. It is fervently hoped that this event will not only be a big boost to the chess activities but will also create awareness among the school children.
