Congrats!!!From Russia!!
India is mother of chess!

[ashersharol]

I'm not an Indian and I feel overwhelmingly proud of these boys. I've been following them for a while (including Nihal Sarin) and you can literally see them rise from the bottom, struggling for the sake of their passion for the game. It is not easy to rise to the upper echelons of the chess world, especially so young. It speaks to their unwavering dedication to the game. Win, loss or draw, the attitude is the same, to learn and to grow always. Congrats team India, you are an inspiration to the rest of the world, something to try to emulate. So special!

[chujeetvigneasharivazhahan]

Levon & Anish both are enjoying the Indian team victories ❤

Arjun did a very small but important gesture of congratulating the guy who won silver onstage - very telling of a leader personality to be able to acknowledge another player’s achievements while receiving such an important award 🥇 👏

[criscabe]

Twice congratulations INDIA🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤from Philippines

[ashish]

Vishy sir had tears in the eyes while national anthem was being played and then when he lifted the trophy. He looks so proud of this young indian team which fulfilled his dream of India being the gold medalist in the olympiad.❤

[SiddhantShedge]

Highly request Chessbase India to make a documentary highlighting the struggles of previous Olympiads and how the Indian team worked their way up to 2 golds🎉
