The ongoing Maha Kumbh, which is witnessing a huge influx of devotees, witnessed an effort to set a new Guinness World Record when as many as 15,000 sanitation workers participated in a cleanliness drive across multiple venues. However, the final results of this record attempt are expected to be announced on February 27. Rishi Nath, an adjudicator from Guinness, detailed the multi-layered evaluation process, including QR-coded wristbands, steward monitoring, and auditing teams across multiple venues.
"We have a multiple-layered evaluation system. The first system is the QR code system. So, each participant is given a wristband with a unique QR code. And as they enter the attempt area, that is scanned. And that data is logged into a central database. This happens across all four venues of the attempts. The second system is that when people are attempting the record, for every 50 participants, there is one steward who will observe them and make sure that all of them are adhering to the guidelines of the record attempt," he told ANI.
