Fish, meat sale banned near Ahmedabad airport over bird strike risk

Fish, meat sale banned near Ahmedabad airport over bird strike risk

Published by Parlour News

The Holi Chakla area on Civil Hospital Road, where one can see the underbelly of planes taking off from the Ahmedabad airport, is also known for its bustling fish market. Earlier this week, however, the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) banned the sale of fish and meat in the Chamanpura fish market and the Holi Chakla area in an attempt to tackle an over-decade-old problem. Violations of the ban could attract up to three years’ imprisonment and a fine of Rs 10,000. The move came in response to repeated safety concerns raised by airport authorities. The concerns were heightened after the Air India crash last year that killed 260 people on June 12, when a Boeing 737 headed to London crashed minutes before take-off. The civic body has directed vendors operating in this temporary fish market, barely 5-7 kilometres from Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport (SVPI), to stop selling fish if they do not want to relocate. On Thursday, the AMC put up boards in these areas imposing the ban under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, stating, …

Last Updated:February 12, 2026, 11:04 IST A bird got trapped in a deadly kite string between high branches, its leg tightly bound, leaving it hanging helpless and unable to fly. Civic Worker Climbs Tall Tree to Rescue Stranded Bird. (Photo: X) What began as a distressing sight on Monday in Tehsil Sadar turned into an emotional moment of relief on Tuesday when a bird, trapped for nearly 24 hours in a kite string high atop a tree, was finally rescued by a brave municipal worker who climbed the tree without any safety equipment. The bird became entangled in a thin, deadly kite string caught between the upper branches of a tall tree. Its leg was tightly wrapped, leaving it suspended and unable to fly. Witnesses said it flapped desperately to escape, but each attempt only tightened the string around its fragile limb. For hours, the bird struggled against the invisible trap.
