You can also try this mirror as repository for your Kali Installation

deb http://ftp.harukasan.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib
deb-src http://ftp.harukasan.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib

These mirrors are fast in my country.

@boldboy32

Just use official mirror (which will match fastest mirror depend on your location automatically) or try this on 2019.2:

deb http://kali.cs.nctu.edu.tw/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib

This mirror is from Department of Computer Science, National Chaio Tung University, Taiwan.
Maybe you can find some mirror from universities localed in India. :)

They work pretty well from my experience with these repositories and I do recommend them. They will take a bit longer than usual because there are many of them, but they are pretty secure and reliable. The original repositories from the Kali Linux website have never worked for me, at all. I would use the apt-get install command and every time it gave me the same error: package not found. I recommend these repositories for anyone experiencing the same difficulties as I did. Juts type in your terminal xdg-open /etc/apt/sources.list and copy and paste these repositories. No #'s needed as far as I know.

Just refer the following site :
https://www.kali.org/docs/general-use/kali-linux-sources-list-repositories/
It's a evergreen site, i.e you can go to above site any time and still get the most updated content.

@david50407

@djieunang4 @Amoako-Manasseh this repo should included 2020.2 version

Any problems to this repo, please contact mirror[at]linux.cs.nctu.edu.tw directly, thank you.

solution:

  1. open up terminal
  2. type:- "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list"
  3. find 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/deadsnakes/ppa/ubuntu jammy Release' and put a "#" before it.
  4. type 'apt update && apt upgrade -y'
    optional 5. encountered error? reply back, support would be long to get.
