Through his campaign #excelaroundtheglobe, Alfan wants the world to wake up to the potential of MS Excel
Mohammed Alfan from Kozhikode has been on a mission to popularise the use of MS Excel. He has been conducting free workshops and webinars for over two years now. When the pandemic struck, he launched a campaign #excelaroundtheglobe, which brought him students from different parts of the world. He has already trained students and professionals from over 12 countries including Tanzania, Ghana, Uganda, Sudan and Nigeria in addition to students from the UK and the Gulf countries. He has trained over 3,000 students from African countries alone.
“The idea is to make Excel more accessible to people and demystify it,” says Mohammed.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
