Pak students create world's largest painting

Pak students create world's largest painting:

 "A group of about 1,000 students of colleges and universities from across Pakistan's Punjab province have created what is being described as the world's largest painting of 41,685 square feet. The students finished the painting at the Punjab Hockey Stadium in Lahore in seven hours yesterday, said the organisers of the event to create the world's largest painting to mark Pakistan Day.

A large number of people gathered at the stadium to watch the students. The current record in the Guinness Book of World Records is held by a 33,000 square-foot painting. Salma Turab of Purple Art and Communications, which organised yesterday's event, told the media that the previous record was created in Nigeria in 2010.

"Pakistan has broken it today," she contended. Turab said the international procedure for setting such a record had been followed and an aerial view of the artwork and videos had been sent to the authorities of the Guinness World Records and they had declared it a new record. " 'via Blog this'
