Viswanathan Anand denied doctorate degree – Anand Indian citizenship questioned

Posted: 24 Aug 2010 02:28 AM PDT


Viswanathan Anand denied doctorate degree as government has confusion whether 3-time World Champion Viswanathan Anand is an Indian citizen or not. World chess champion Viswanathan Anand may have earned India laurels across the globe, but the government isn’t convinced he is an Indian citizen and has been questioned Anand whether he is of having Indian citizenship or Spain?. The world’s best chess player was denied an honorary doctorate he was to have received on today on August 24, 2010 (Monday), because different government arms are disputing over whether Anand is an Indian or Spanish citizen.

World chess champion Viswanathan Anand may have brought laurels to India many a time but doubts have been cast over his nationality, throwing a dampener on University of Hyderbad’s plans to honour Viswanathan Anand with a doctorate. The human resource development ministry at the centre has withheld clearance for the University’s proposal to honour Anand along with renowned mathematician David Mumford of Harvard University, coinciding with the International Conference on Mathematics currently on here.

A livid Aruna Anand, wife of the champion, has written a furious note to organisers of the ongoing International Congress of Mathematicians in Hyderabad who have been lobbying for the award to the chess grandmaster, a conference organizer confirmed. The University of Hyderabad decided in 2009 to award Anand and four others – including noted mathematician David Mumford and theatre personality Ebrahim Alkazi — honorary doctorates.

The university did not specify either the date for the award, or that there were any foreign citizens among the awardees, the sources said. All foreign awardees have to be approved by the Ministry of External Affairs.

When the HRD Ministry twice prompted the university with these queries, it was informed that Anand – who lives with his wife in Spain – is a Spanish citizen. But it still did not inform the Ministry that it needed the approval urgently as the awards ceremony was to be held on Monday.

Mathematicians at the Congress in Hyderabad who learnt about the university’s stance on Anand’s citizenship intervened, and wrote to Aruna who responded by sending a terse email and a copy of Anand’s passport.

The HRD Ministry finally concluded that Anand is indeed an Indian citizen, but sources said that university vice-chancellor, Seyed E Hasnain belived that he does not holding Indian citizenship.
