The tribal children of Attappady made a world record on Monday when they created the largest canvas painting by tribal students. The mood at EMS Town Hall, Agali, Attappady, on Monday afternoon was of jubilation as 182 tribal students gave expression to their artistic talent in watercolour on a 720-foot-long canvas.

In two hours, a world record was born under the supervision of the Talent Record Book, a Maharashtra-based certifying agency. The event was organised as part of the Union government public policy thinktank NITI Aayog’s aspirational block programme.
