Though defeating the opponent is the main aim, honouring the opponent's king is also very important.Always the white king (Tella Rāju) should be on a black square (Nalla Gaḍi) and the black king (Nalla Rāju) should be on a white square (Tella Gaḍi).Surprisingly, it is similar to the honouring of a soldier for having fought exceptionally well in a war, by a king. But when a Banṭu reaches the other end, then the honour of that position, except that of Rāju (king), is given in traditional Indian chess. Banṭu (pawn) (also known as Bhaṭuḍu) is a piece with lowest significance though larger in number than any other piece.In olden days Enugu (rook) played a very important role in scattering the army of an enemy, thereby making them deviate from their strategic movements. Often the opponent knows its advance but cannot escape. Enugu (rook) is known for straightforward devastating attacks.Even in the game it is the Gurramu (knight) that has a greater number of moves than any other piece. Gurramu (knight) is known for its irregular jumping movements which often keeps the opponent in a dilemma for a moment.(Actually Śakaṭa is a Sanskrit word meaning chariot.) Often the opponent doesn't take into consideration the presence of chariots which in turn give stunning, often devastating blows in Indian warfare. Śakaṭamu (bishop) is known for their famous zig-zag movements while attacking.(In Sanskrit, Mantri means Prime Minister.) Though the king only passes the decrees, actually it is the Prime Minister who actually decides all kinds of acts and strategies that are required for the welfare of the king/kingdom. Mantri (queen) is the next most powerful person in an Indian empire/kingdom.The knight-move (Gurrapu Ettu) of a king (Rāja) resembles the escape of a king for a safer location at the most crucial time (Āpaddharma kāla) in warfare. Rāju (king) is the most powerful, but often won't come into action unless required.The position and movements of pieces (Anga) correctly suit the reality of Indian warfare: ( Soltis 2004:6) harvcol error: no target: CITEREFSoltis2004 ( help), ( Silman 1998:340) harvcol error: no target: CITEREFSilman1998 ( help), ( Polgar & Truong 2005:11) harvcol error: no target: CITEREFPolgarTruong2005 ( help). If there is an enemy piece diagonally (either left or right) one space in front of the pawn, the pawn may move diagonally to capture that piece. On its first move it can optionally move two spaces forward. Banṭu/ Bhatudu moves one space straight forward (away from the player).Enugu moves orthogonally to the players (forward, backward, left or right) any number of squares. It is the only piece that can jump over other pieces.
