To test the child’s ability, his parents showed him an image of Indian flag when Prime Minister Narendra Modi was delivering the Independence Day speech. To everyone’s surprise, the kid was found giving salutation to the tricolour. Following this incident, they showed him flags of many countries and he was gradually able to memorise all of them.
