Mobile phone towers and microwave pollution are silent killers of the house sparrows,” Ms. Lakhsmi said. The gregarious house sparrows, once a common sight in neighbourhoods, are in trouble and declining in cities and rural areas. With an aim to raise awareness on the declining numbers of the sparrow and initiate conservation measures, the World Sparrow Day was observed across the world on Monday, March 20. On Sunday, an awareness meet was held at the Indira Gandhi Zoological Park to increase the population of the house sparrows. Puranabanda village near Berhamapur is spearheading a movement to revive sparrow population by using bird feeders and nests in every household.
