NAVI MUMBAI: Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation has set a world record in simultaneous staging of street plays at its 111 electoral wards.
The plays were held on Wednesday as part of the Swachh Navi Mumbai mission with a total of 836 people doing the plays under the theme Majha Sahar Majha Sahbag (My City, My Participation).
‘Best of India Records' has monitored the event and issued the certificate of record for the largest such event in the world.

Bangar has congratulated the people of Navi Mumbai for this world record and described it as yet another feather in the city’s cap.
