Mr Ajay travelled through village about a week back. In late afternoon hours he could see only one sparrow at village, it may be because of the high day temperature, when birds takes shelter in shade, but in any case sighting of only one bird is an indicator towards the depleted population in that area.
I have extensively travelled this area in yrs 1995 to 2000, at that time the species was fairly common.
