🇮🇳 Neelakantha Bhanu Prakash, the 23-year-old Maths wizard, is known as the ‘World's Fastest Human Calculator’.
Back in 2005, a tragic accident left Bhanu bedridden for a year. In a bid to boost his brain, his parents encouraged him to solve puzzles, and that's how his passion for Maths started. Ten years later, he went on to break the World Record held by Scott Flansburg to become the world’s fastest human calculator.
On the eve of National Mathematics Day, Sputnik approached Prakash and asked to perform his skills on camera.
Prepared to be amazed as you see for yourself his jaw-dropping talent!

🇺🇸🇨🇳🌍 The 2022 US–Africa Leaders Summit, which took place from 13 to 15 December in Washington DC, has been widely seen as part of an American attempt to counter growing Chinese influence in Africa.

"I'm not sure the US is flexible enough to play the kind of game the Chinese are playing. […] I think that the Chinese have been much more creative and shown much more foresight in what they want to do in Africa. And I don't think western powers are going to be able to catch up with them," says Dr. Frederick Golooba-Mutebi, Ugandan independent researcher and political scientist with a special interest in political economics
