I have been playing actively till now and won an international tournament in Spain in October last year.My book Road to a World Chess Title is a comprehensive guide through my memoirs, games and exercises. In it, I share my experience of years of playing chess in a bid to help young chess players. "

A self-taught player, Arvinder's journey to bag a world chess title from humble beginnings is an inspiring life story, dotted with lessons to improve your chess.

Great read! Loved the games, their analysis and the stories behind them! I am sure readers will also find them fascinating. Wish Arvinder all the best for the book.

My camaraderie with Arvinder goes way back to 1996, when he was already a recognised state junior level hockey player. But his fascination towards Chess gave Punjab a bright young talent, which over years flourished and brought great laurels for our country when he won the World Amateur Chess Championship in 2018. I am sure that his writings penned in this book will be invaluable for all budding as well as professional chess players alike. I wish him all the best!
