| Q11. Would you like to share a story about House Sparrows from this time period? | As, I mentioned during the period 2000-04, A large number of sparrows were seen in this village. But from 2005-09, the situation changed. Mobile revolution began from 2004-05 and began the countdown of sparrows.The new houses were built in the village and people left their open air houses.New houses were close and there was no space for the sparrows to build their nests.People used to feed the sparrows by throwing grains(wheat and millet) on their roofs.I used to find often my parents fighting with the nests in the house and keeping them out of the house.If this negative effect of mobile revolution would have been found earlier, this loss could be prevented. But now, as I think there is no way to get back those days. |
