It is a matter of pride to have eight-year old R.Raja
Rithvik studying in the fourth grade of Orchids-The International School. His
victories in chess tournaments at the district, state, national and international
levels are highly commendable. Success, it seems, has become a matter of routine
for him since the age of four. He is the highest rated player in U-8 category
among Indian players with International rating of 1566 and second seed in Asia.
He represented India in the 7th Asian School Chess Championship in
Under – 7 category conducted by Asian Chess Federation from 16th to
23rd December in 2011 at New Delhi. Raja Rithvik is the present AP
State Champion in Under -7 Category and bagged prizes in National Championship
conducted at Pune in July 2011 and Bhubaneshwar in August, 2011.
Orchids congratulates him on his victories and wishes him
all the best in his future endeavours.
