Bengaluru bans public pigeon feeding over health risks, with fines or jail for violations.
Bengaluru has banned feeding pigeons in public spaces due to health risks from droppings and feathers, which can cause respiratory illnesses like hypersensitivity pneumonitis, especially in vulnerable populations.
Feeding is now restricted to designated areas under supervision, with violations punishable by fines or up to six months in prison under Indian law.
The move, driven by concerns over airborne fungi, bacteria, and allergens linked to pigeon populations, follows warnings from health experts and plans for public awareness campaigns.
Implementation details are being finalized with civic and animal welfare groups.
