Chess players Karun Duggal and Gurpreet Pal Singh, banned by the All India Chess Federation (AICF) for taking part in tournaments conducted by the rival Chess Association of India (CAI), are planning to move the Competition Commission of India's appellate tribunal, seeking Rs 50 lakh as compensation for "the sufferings, loss of reputation and loss of opportunities."
Singh, a national junior champion in 1994, on his part said, "our main aim is to ensure that young chess players don't suffer like us."
