The Government College, Munnar, has been declared a fully ‘chess literate’ institution.
According to officials, as part of the chess campus project, students, teachers, and other staff members took chess training. A. Manoj Kumar, a master chess trainer from Thrissur, imparted training to selected students and teachers, who, in turn, trained other students and teachers over a period of two weeks.
To mark the new status of the campus, students and teachers on Thursday donned white and black attires, depicting chess players on the college ground.
