Bombay High Court Maintains Ban on Pigeon Feeding in Mumbai’s Dadar

The Bombay High Court has upheld the ban on pigeon feeding in the Dadar area of Mumbai. The court has prioritized the health of the citizens, leading to the decision. A team of doctors was assigned to look into the matter further. The court’s final verdict will be announced after the team submits its report. Until the verdict, the ban on feeding pigeons will continue. The matter has gained significant attention in Mumbai recently. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) had initiated the ban due to health concerns. This decision led to strong protests from the Jain community. The court has emphasized that any objections to its ruling should be addressed legally without disregarding the court’s orders. Now that the High Court has upheld the ban, the option of appealing to the Supreme Court remains open.
