Currently, each fire station in Mumbai has one bird rescue pole, procured in 2017.
In a bid to save birds entangled in high-tension cables and kite strings and on electric poles, the Mumbai Fire Brigade (MFB) is set to procure 57 new bird rescue poles for its fire stations.
Recently, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) floated a tender inviting bids for the supply of the ‘telescopic bird rescue poles’ which are proposed to be distributed across its 35 fire stations in the city.
