50 paintings in 24 hours: Rajasthan official's effort for drug-free childhood

Ajmer: Using little more than her fingers and palm, a Rajasthan official has churned out 50 paintings in twenty-four hours straight to drive home the message of a drug-free childhood.

Rajasthan State Child Rights Protection Commission chairperson Manan Chaturvedi started painting from 3:00 pm on Saturday and continued up till 3:00 pm on Sunday near Shaheed Smarak Bajrang Garh here amid a huge crowd.

Her personal record has been painting for 72 hours straight, Chaurvedi told PTI. Ajmer is the 15th place where she has attempted to paint for 24 hours without a break.

Each painting was based on a different theme, with one devoted to the nation.

She used different techniques ranging from finger painting, to using the palm of her hand.
