Mohit's first Rating tournament triumph
WCM Bristy Mukherjee had defeated Mohit Kumar Soni in the fourth round. She gained sole lead 6.5/7. Mohit won the next four game after his loss and had a half point lead heading into the final round 8/9. Bristy suffered her only loss in the final round against Kishan Kumar, while Mohit drew against Cheniram Pegu. Mohit became a clear champion and tie-breaks were not required. Fourth place is certainly a good finish for Bristy.
The tournament was inaugurated by Sasanka Pratim Deka, Executive Director, Oil India Limited in the presence of Probin Gogoi, President, Dibrugarh District Chess Association and FA FI Pranab Kumar Nath, Joint Secretary, All Assam Chess Association and also Chief Arbiter of the tournament.
