    Try this command sudo apt-get update.
    After you type this it will ask for your root password.
    If this does not work then try changing your repos.
    repos can be found in /root/etc/apt/sources.list.
    and if you are facing slow speed in terminal then try this link:-http://http.kali.org/README.mirrorlist
    here you will find fastest repos at your location and continent also other repos below.
    Hope this helps you, need any other help fell free to conatact me my email:-arkapravaa.3#gmail.com.
    Thank you.
