The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) said on Tuesday that it has initiated the process for issuance of new banknotes.
In a statement, the central bank announced that it is organising an art competition to “have innovative and thematic design ideas for the new series banknotes.”
It said local artists, designers and art students/designers are eligible to participate in the art competition.
“The participants may develop designs on themes, including but not limited to social and cultural identities, demographic diversity, climate change and environment protection, economic development, natural landscapes, architectural heritage and national symbols,” the central bank added.
It said the artists can submit their ‘novel’ designs and ideas to the central bank’s finance department director.
