In a heartwarming moment at the 45th Chess Olympiad in Budapest, the Pakistan team posed for photos with the Indian flag alongside the Indian chess contingent. This gesture followed India’s historic double gold medal achievement, with both the men’s and women’s teams claiming their first-ever gold medals. The event marks a milestone in Indian chess, with stars like D Gukesh and R Praggnanandhaa dominating. The video has gone viral, drawing comparisons to a previous incident involving Pakistan’s hockey team holding Chinese flags during the Asian Champions Trophy.
