Bhakti, Shradha and Nandhini to play in National "B"

Bhakti Kulkarni (ELO 2060), Shradha Mohanan (ELO 1870) and Nandhini Saripalli (ELO 1845) will be amongst the Goan contingent in the National "B" Chess Championship to be held at Chennai from the 19th to the 26th of September, 2006.

The other two members of the Goan team are Meloisa Celianne Carvalho and Anuradha Chavan. Smt. Priya Kulkarni is the accompanying official of the team. Bhakti narrowly missed out in the qualification race in last year's "B" which was held in Sangli. In the new format, 20 ladies will be selected for the National "A" to be held in Rajkot in December. Good luck to the young ladies!
