Maharashtra Forest Minister Pushes to Protect Flamingo Haven in Navi Mumbai

In a significant move for wildlife conservation, Maharashtra Forest Minister Ganesh Naik has pledged to advance plans for designating the 30-acre DPS Flamingo Lake in Nerul, Navi Mumbai, as a conservation reserve. This initiative follows recommendations from a government committee formed after a series of flamingo deaths in the area. Naik's commitment comes after meeting with B N Kumar, director of NatConnect Foundation, who presented a detailed report on necessary preservation steps. The minister has already forwarded the report to the forest department, signaling swift action to protect this crucial migratory bird habitat.
