| your brilliance: Thank you <cubsfan>. There is surprisingly little information about Barua on the web. He was actually India's first "chess prodigy" before Anand, but he became a GM (India's 2nd) after Anand. DOB: 10/27/1966. Perhaps some of the other visitors to the site could add more info. |

| chesswonders: The well known contemporary players from India namely Viswanathan Anand, Krishnan Sasikiran, Pentala Harikrishna, Koneru Humpy all hail from the southern part of India. This guy is one of the few players who's not from south and had been quite a sensation amongst the country's chess lovers, during his peak. He is the second GM from the country. |

| JASAHA: I had the opportunity to play a friendly game with Debyendu while I was in Kolkata in the 1980's. He gave me a lesson in serious chess play!! I also had a game with he father which I managed to draw. Debyendu would occasionally come to the West Bengal Chess association and play there. I believe he was very strong in Guicco Piano (as well as in other openings). |
