Speaking from Abbott and Edgerton Road on Sunday 4TH March where the first series took place, Master Paints CFO, Kashif Shahzad said, “For majority, the ‘Street Art Competition’ is an anti wall chalking campaign that teaches people to keep the city walls clean. For us at Master Paints, it’s a vision for a better future! By endorsing this endeavour from “Message Welfare Trust”, we want to send a message to our youth that shown the right direction, they can achieve anything. With such wholesome activity, a sense of friendship, competition, team work, unity and discipline is bound to prevail amongst those taking part”
