Reigning World chess champion Viswanathan Anand yesterday joined the Board of Directors of the Olympic Gold Quest (OGQ), a "movement" initiated by billiards ace Geet Sethi to support the country's elite sportspersons and potential young talent.
"I am quite honoured to join the Board of OGQ. It is nice to join my fellow sportspersons in making India a sporting and Olympic nation. Our upcoming sportspersons can learn a lot from our experience and we in turn can provide them a platform for excellence. I am quite excited in taking this initiative forward," Anand said in a statement.
