Indian IT giant Infosys has said it plans to build the world's largest
free-standing clock tower at its campus in the southern city of Mysore,Karnataka,India
When it is ready next year the Gothic-style tower will stand 135m (443 feet) tall, the firm says, dwarfing other clock towers around the world.
Currently the tallest free-standing clock tower is thought to be the 100m-high Old Joe in Birmingham in the UK
Big Ben in London is just 96m in height (and is not free-standing anyway)
It is not clear if the Infosys clock will chime on the hour, as Big Ben does.
