Opposite side of the Lal Quila at Netaji Subhash Marg(Road)
is a delightful and unusual attraction. It is a hospital for birds.
This hospital was started in 1956 by Jains. This three storied hospital
is used to treat vegetarian birds and rabbits. The courtyard
is used for carnivorous birds and needy animals. The hospital is modest
and shows how render loving care can stretch limited funds. It has an
intensive care unit and a research laboratory too. The birds are
fed, bathed and given vitamins. Due to this, the health birds refused
to leave the hospital. The flocks of birds swirl around its roof
can be seen every time. Visit daily 8 - 8, entry- free. |
