On the #ChessDrama front, it is the father tweeting and he is still going. He does seem to be making a bid to be the the 21st century's Rustam Kamsky

Emil Sutovsky not impressed either:

Unfollowing @ChessMishra - Abhimanyu chess results and dedication deserve an admiration, but whoever tweets on his behalf generates too much of a negative feeling. That inevitably impacts the attitude towards the kid, and I don't want it to happen.

Yes, I am inclined to agree. Maybe his father has let things go to his head a little. He shouldn't really be putting pressure on his son like that, and he really ought to know he has a greater impact on his son's development than anyone else more or less.
