Yes. Anand is fine. We are happy and relieved that he is here, Aruna Anand, the chess genius wife, told The Hindu.
Now this is the last part of the quarantine at home, we need to follow all the instructions by the health authorities. We are doing it in the strictest possible manner for everybodys safety.

In fact, when the car came, we stood at the gate of the building and he waved at us. We watched him go inside his room and shut himself.
We have aged people (Anands father and my mother at home) and my nine-year-old son Akhil. It is important that he stays separate so that nobodys health is compromised, she said.
