Activists: Will move court over action against pigeon feeding sites
Mumbai: Upset with the BMC action against kabutarkhanas in the city, several activists have accused govt of not showing compassion towards pigeons. Jawahar Mehta and Sandeep Doshi, representatives of the Jain community who live near Dadar kabutarkhana, said that they will move court against the demolition of pigeon-feeding sites. "I visit the century-old Dadar kabutarkhana every day, but have never suffered from any respiratory issue. Dirty politics is at play... We have no other option but to go to court," said Doshi. "Has the National Centre for Disease Control or any other authority declared that pigeons are harmful to humans? We suspect that builders may be eyeing the space created by destroying kabutarkhanas..." Honorary representative of the Animal Welfare Board of India, Mitesh Jain claimed the "anti-pigeon stand has been taken to appease animal haters just before the BMC elections". "Supreme Court had issued directions to all states and union territories in the 2009 SLP petition of AWBI v/s Nagaraja & others, that the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act must be adhered to in India. Disturbing bird-feeding sites or denying them food is animal cruelty," added Jain.

A PETA India member commented: "A review of studies and literature shows that the risk of pigeons spreading diseases to humans is extremely low. On the other hand, badly caged poultry birds and farm animals raised for meat in dirty conditions cause serious illnesses like bird flu and other zoonotic pathogens. So, govt should stop targeting pigeons."

Kids negotiate risky caved-in bridge to reach school in Khunti
1 2 3 Ranchi: For scores of children and their parents, the road to school in the adjoining Khunti district is a risk-filled journey these days. While kids sit on their parents' backs to first climb a 25-foot-high makeshift ladder to get atop a caved-in bridge, grown-ups undertake this daily adventure on their own for the onward journey. The reason? The lone bridge, known as Pelol Bridge, which connects to their school, was washed away in mid-June. With no alternate road so far, hundreds are left with no other option than to undertake these daredevil stunts to reach school, as the school management also halted bus services due to the broken bridge. Rakesh Munda, the father of a Class 4 student, who studies at a private school a kilometre away from the bridge, said that while a kutcha diversion was prepared by the district administration soon after the bridge caved in, that too was literally washed away during successive rains since then. "Not just for these students, even for the general public living in nearby areas, commuting between both ends has become a daily challenge," he said. Munda, a resident of Torpa block, added, "I know it's risky to travel this way, but my kids won't agree to stay at home. Initially, for two days they missed school, but later they became impatient to resume classes. I have no other option than to take them on my shoulders to climb the ladder to reach the top of the broken bridge, and then walk to the school." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Ada jeragat, terus nampak tua! Minum ni je, beli kat Guardian URUHIME MOMOKO Undo Another parent from Bisna village said, "With no school buses now, I am driving my son daily from home, 4 km away from here, and park the bike here. Then, we use this ladder put up by locals for daily commute to get onto the bridge for the onward journey." The said bridge, built over the Banai River on the Khunti-Simdega main stretch, is also one of the key connecting roads to neighbouring Odisha. It was built in 2007-08 with an investment of Rs 6 crore. Talking to TOI, staff of Katherine Academy said, "Only in our school, over 100 students are affected due to this broken bridge. People coming from Torpa, Bisna, Angrabari, and beyond have no other option. We had to stop our bus services to these places due to the broken bridge," she said. The area falls under Murhu block. Local block development officer, Ranjit Kumar Sinha, acknowledged the problems but said that a permanent solution will take time. He said, "I too have learnt about people scaling the risky bridge for commute and have requested the local thana to keep patrolling to avert any mishaps or deter people from doing so. A diversion was created as an alternate route from nearby the bridge. Construction of a permanent bridge involves lots of clearances, but the rural development department is learnt to have already sanctioned a new bridge worth around Rs 3 crore. "
