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.”
