apt-get update not working via college proxy

Question

I am getting endless ign and err while updating the apt-get, i even used proxychains by the command : proxychains apt-get update But still the ign and err are same. I want to install tor browser but this apt-get install tor doesnt work. Are they related ? I need the answer fast. I'm pissed off by searching it on net.

The error is : #apt-get update Ign:1 http://downloadue.info/repo maverick InRelease
Err:2 http://http.security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates InRelease — Aditya Mundhra, Apr 24 '16 at 11:26
the comment doesn't have enough space to fill the full error. I only sent the initial line of error — Aditya Mundhra, Apr 24 '16 at 11:27

Usually it is not a good idea to install the Tor browser from a repository. In the past the packages were often too old and caused hazzle during an update. Just download the Tor Browser from https://torproject.org/. It will run and update without problems.
