Class 12 student from West Bengal comes up with soundless hammer after noisy renovation leaves him frustrated

Class 12 student Prithwish developed the idea of a soundproof hammer after renovation work at his home exposed him to prolonged construction noise. Interested in science and technology, he proposed covering the hammer with a foam-like material to absorb impact and reduce noise. While economics is his favourite subject, he reads science books and hopes to become a businessman like his father.
