Students Create National Anthem Record

KARACHI: In an attempt to set a new world record, thousands of students gathered on Tuesday morning at University road and sang the national anthem. Though there was a great display of patriotism at the event, the target of setting a new record could not be achieved. Last year, around 5,857 people gathered at a stadium in Khadda market and set the world record for the most number of people singing a national anthem simultaneously. However, the record was broken earlier this year. On January 25, around 15,243 people in Aurangabad, India, simultaneously sang the country's national anthem. The organizers of this year's event claimed that they succeeded in gathering around 10,000 students, which means that the record made in India stands.
