The state of Uttar Pradesh has set its eyes at a new record in the Guinness World Records by rolling out a fleet of 500 buses here on Thursday, officials said.

The Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (UPSRTC) buses will cover a distance of over 3.2 km (approximately 2 miles)

The parade of the saffron-colored buses was held at NH-19, between Sahson toll and Nawabganj toll plaza.

This would be the longest parade of buses anywhere in the world. The present record of a similar feat is held currently by Abu Dhabi of 390 buses.

At least 75 observers from the Guinness Book of World Records were reportedly there to witness the attempt made between 8 am to 9.30am on 28 February.
