印度在国际棋联（FIDE）发布的2026年国际象棋性别平等指数（GECI）排名中下滑，这凸显了与全球进步相比，女子参与度、表现和进步方面的差距。《印度时报》的一篇分析文章指出了系统性问题，并呼吁进行改革以提升性别平衡。
2026年GECI是国际棋联女子国际象棋委员会和昆士兰大学推出的第二版，该指数根据参与度（女性注册棋手的占比）、表现（Elo等级分差距）和进步（女子青年赛事参与度）对119个棋联进行排名。虽然全球各地区分数均有所上升——亚洲平均64.5分——蒙古以89.26分位居榜首，但印度排名下滑，这是《印度时报》在新德里国际妇女节前后报道中详述的内容。 作者乔蒂尔莫伊·哈尔德批评印度国际象棋缺乏结构化体系：“印度国际象棋没有一个能培养冠军的体系。基本上靠的是父母和棋手的努力。”文章呼吁进行系统性变革来解决不足之处，尽管未指定印度的确切排名和数据。诸如“indian chess”、“gender equality”和“FIDE”等关键词强调了增加女性参与的推动力。 这一聚焦印度的分析补充了全球GECI概览，强调在全球进步中需要采取针对性行动。
