Pune, 2nd October 2023: In a remarkable feat that has caught the attention of both India and Asia, a young prodigy from Pune, Maharashtra, has set a new record in geography. Viaan Kohli, born on June 11, 2019, has become the youngest individual to identify all 195 United Nations-recognized countries by their flags, name their capitals, and pinpoint their locations on an outlined world map.
The record was officially confirmed on August 31, 2023, by the India Book of Records. At the tender age of 4 years, 2 months, and 20 days, Kohli accomplished this extraordinary task in just 13 minutes and 53 seconds.
