Renowned sand artist Sudarsan Pattnaik has created a 25-feet sand sculpture to mark the election victory of US President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris at the Puri beach in Odisha.

Pattnaik has created a sand sculpture of both the leaders to congratulate them on the historic victory.

He used about 10 tonnes of sand and took 6 hours to complete the sculpture.

"We are very happy that the first time a woman of Indian origin was elected as Vice President. I would like to congratulate Kamala Harris," Pattnaik said.

He has created many sand sculptures for US election.
