Student wins gold in chess boxing
Devananda, a Class IX girl cadet of Sainik School, Kazhakuttam, has won the gold medal in 60-65 kg category of sub-junior girls in the 12th National Chess Boxing Tournament held at Kovalam.
A resident of PTP Nagar here, Devananda began playing chess in class I. It was after joining Sainik School, Kazhakuttam, that she took up chess boxing under the guidance of school vice-principal Wing Commander Rajkumar. She continues to hone her skills in both chess and boxing simultaneously with the support of her coach Sandhanu.

The High Court of Karnataka on Tuesday ordered the issue of a notice to the State government on a PIL petition, which had complained about disturbances caused to people residing in the localities around the National Public School situated in Rajajinagar 5th block due to use of loudspeakers with high volume in the school and parking of school buses in residential areas.
