Vantika Agarwal is worried that Chess has no proper encouragement in South India in North India. South India is at the forefront of chess and Chess has more support in Tamil Nadu. Chess is seen as a hobby in North India but not considered a profession. In Tamil Nadu, a chess house is the word and all members play chess. They also play in schools. Not only organizations but also the government is encouraged. This is why chess is widely publicized in the south. The situation in North India is different.

- Delhi Chess Association President Bharat Singh Chauhan described the cultural difference between North and South India
- Tamil Nadu has a lot of support for chess and the government awards, said Grandmaster SL. Narayanan
