Kishan Gangolli is one of India's top visually challenged players. Recently he won an individual gold and a team silver at the Asian Paragames 2018. It was a big moment for the blind chess community because this was the first time that chess was included in the Asian Paragames and medals won by our players would add up to India's medal tally. Kishan's efforts not only helped him stand on the podium and listen to the sweet feeling of the Indian national anthem, but also gave him an opportunity to meet the Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi. Here's an interview with the champion on how the Asian Paragames were, which was his favourite game (don't miss the analysis) and also how his meeting with the PM was!
