A sculptor from Rajasthan, west India, who has a Guinness World Records title has created a miniature of Hindu god Rama.

Navratna Prajapati from Jaipur is known for his exceptional miniature artwork and his latest creation is no let down.

The sculptor's latest piece measures at an astonishing 1.3cm tall, positioned at the end of a pencil.

"Today, when our pride was held high in Ayodhya, there were many people, some were devotees and some were artists, doing what they could at their level. I thought I needed to do something, so I decided to do a statue of Sri Ram with the pencil lead," he said.

He added: "Everyone was surprised to see this kind of art form with the pencil. Now I am getting calls from many people wanting to know how this is being done."

Expressing his intentions, Prajapati expressed his desire to gift the miniature statue to the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust, an organisation involved in the construction and management of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya.
