Is Sankranti par safe aur responsible celebration ka message dete hue, Telangana Forest Department ne logon se appeal ki hai ki synthetic ya glass-coated manja ka use bilkul na karein.
Forest officials ne clear kiya hai ki banned manja na sirf insaanon ke liye khatarnaak hai, balki birds aur wildlife ke liye bhi jaanleva sabit ho raha hai. Isi wajah se National Green Tribunal (NGT) aur Government of Telangana ne is tarah ke manja par complete ban lagaya hua hai.
Authorities ke mutabiq, banned manja ka use ya sale karna Wildlife Protection Act, 1972 ke Section 51 ke tehat punishable offence hai, jisme sakht action liya ja sakta hai.
Forest Department ne public se cooperation maangte hue kaha hai ki agar kahin bhi illegal manja ki sale/use dikhe ya koi injured bird madad ke liye ho, to turant inform karein.
