Bhubaneswar: City-based Meghali Malabika, who is also known as Human Atlas, has been featured in the ‘Young Genius’ programme, which recognizes and celebrates child prodigies.

The 14-year-old Meghali has left people surprised with her knowledge about 197 different countries.

The teen wonder, who aims to be a scientist, says geography is her favourite subject. “Due to my interest, dedication and practice, I have gained this knowledge in geography.”

She is also referred to as ‘Google Girl’ and ‘Human Search Engine’ for having so much information at her fingertips.

“My sources of inspiration are my father and mother. Since I was four years old, my father has been encouraging and teaching me several topics related to geography,” said Meghali.

Ollywood stars like Sabyasachi Mishra, Aakash Dasnayak, Anu Chowdhury, Bhumika Dash, and Debadutta, athlete Anshika Routray and international chess player Padmini Rout have praised Meghali for her achievement.

When Meghali was 10 years old, she entered the India Book of Records for naming 1,000 rivers of the world in 9 minutes, 1,000 cities of the world in 10 minutes, and 1,000 geographical bodies of the earth in 12 minutes.
