Jain monk stages protest against closure of Dadar Kabutarkhana in Mumbai

A Jain monk has started an indefinite fast at Mumbai's Azad Maidan. He protests the civic body's closure of the Dadar Kabutarkhana, a traditional pigeon feeding site. The monk demands the site's restoration. He argues alternate locations are too far for pigeons. The community is willing to fund a new site if allotted.
