Tributes poured in from all over the world following the death of 29-year-old US GM Daniel Naroditsky. Two of India’s finest chess players — Viswanathan Anand and R Praggnanandhaa — also offered their condolences on Tuesday.

Anand, a five-time world champion, wrote on social media: “Really shocked at the passing away of GM Daniel Naroditsky. An excellent chess commentator and educator. A genuinely nice person. A life gone too soon. My deepest condolences to his family. The chess world will miss his presence.”


Meanwhile, Praggnanandhaa said, “I’m deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Daniel. Every time I logged into Chess.com, I would see his challenge for a game. It’s hard to believe that I won’t see it anymore. My heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones.” Naroditsky’s death was announced by his family in a statement on Monday.
