Gukesh made history on Thursday by becoming the youngest champion in the sport’s history, defeating China’s Ding Liren in the final game of their FIDE World Championship match. Gukesh received his FIDE World Championship trophy following his remarkable triumph the subsequent day. The championship, which was tied at 6.5-6.5 heading into the final game, concluded with a stellar performance by Gukesh, who secured a 7.5-6.5 victory over Ding Liren, according to FIDE’s official website.
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann’s wife also attended the ‘Dil-Luminati’ concert in Chandigarh.
Meanwhile, before Diljit’s show, the Chandigarh Commission for Protection of Child Rights (CCPCR) issued an advisory urging him to avoid performing alcohol-themed songs during his live performance. The advisory, issued by CCPCR chairperson Shipra Bansal on Thursday, specifically referenced songs such as ‘Patiala Peg’, ‘5 Tara’, and ‘Case’, cautioning against performing even modified versions that promote alcohol, drugs, or violence.
