I like competitive deciphering, competitive Rubik's Cube solving and Quizzing in my free time. Or just reading a book.

SpeedCubing
Solving Cube is a thrill. Speed Cubing (solving in minimum time) is all the more challenging as it requires good mental ability, analytical skill and speed.
I am proud to be the founder of ‘Cubing Club’ in my school ! I am also proud for having achieved 189th world ranking during 2013-14 in Rubik’s Cube (3×3) category by ‘World Cube association (WCA)’.
Although, started as a curiosity, the Cube solving became a passion for me ! Having learnt to solve all types of Cubes e.g. 2×2, 3×3, 4×4, Pyramincs (Pyramidal), Megaminks (Hexagonal), I joined the league of Speed Cubers and started participating in competitions organised by ‘the World Cubing Association’. Within two years of practice, I achieved consistent timing of less than 20 seconds in solving Rubik’s Cube in various competitions organised by World Cube Association, which helped me achieve the National Rank of 146 in this category during year 2013-14.Visit my YouTube channel for more
