Gandhi Confident on Reopening of Mumbai Kabutarkhanas

Maneka Gandhi, a BJP leader, is hopeful that Mumbai's pigeon-feeding spots, called kabutarkhanas, will reopen.

These were closed due to health concerns.

She thinks pigeons are not harmful and firecrackers are a bigger problem.

She said the Chief Minister has a committee looking into it and that a favorable report will come out soon.

She also criticized India's tourism, saying cutting down trees and ignoring local culture is not good, which diminishes tourism.

She feels that respecting nature would boost tourism.
