Tripura, 10 August 2025: Tarnesha Das, a student of Women’s College, Agartala, hailing from Salema under Kamalpur subdivision, has secured a place in the International Book of Records. She proved that with determination, willpower, and perseverance, any height can be achieved. In recognition of her achievement, the International Book of Records authorities awarded her a certificate and medal. Tarnesha’s home is in Kachurchhara Sarkar Para of Salema, and she is the daughter of Piyush Kanti Das.
Speaking to the media from her home, Tarnesha shared details of her accomplishment. She set the record by writing the name “Shri Ram” 46 times on a single jackfruit seed measuring just 2 cm in length, completing the task in 2 minutes. The officials of the International Book of Records tested her skills via an online video call.
She received the award yesterday via Indian Speed Post from the International Book of Records team. The package included a medal, certificate, appreciation letter, stickers, and a keyring.
This is not her first recognition — in 2023, Tarnesha entered the India Book of Records by creating the national flags of 21 countries on 21 mung beans. Her achievements have brought pride not only to Salema or Kamalpur subdivision but to the entire Dhalai district and Tripura state.
Tarnesha credits her success to her family’s inspiration, her art teacher Rajib Rudra Pal of Salema, and the support of her friends. She also thanked her former mathematics tutor, Amar Saha, who had encouraged her during her earlier India Book of Records achievement.
She further shared her views on the responsible use of technology, saying that mobile phones and the internet can be powerful tools if used for educational purposes rather than just social media platforms like Facebook, YouTube, or Instagram.
Her back-to-back national and international records from a small village in a remote subdivision stand as proof that with strong willpower, anything is possible.
