Eco India: Meet the man who is building hand-made nests for sparrows in the city
Every week, Eco India brings you stories of innovations from across India and Europe, and the people who make them possible. Our top story this week looks at environmentalist Rakesh Khatri, who has been teaching people to build hand-made nests for sparrows, birds that have been rendered virtually homeless in the urban jungle of Delhi.

Respect to all those people who makes an effort to improve our environment rather than just blaming the Government.

नमस्ते तिशा जी, ठीक कहा आपने कब तक सरकार को दोष देंगे, अगर हम सब अपने हिस्से का भी करेंगे तो भी देश के लिए बड़ा बदलाव ले आएंगे।

@@seemarawal5717 The truth about Aarey has been kept hidden by authorities.
The work might look stupid to some, simple to few, yet it makes great difference. The man is doing a wonderful job.
Sparrows were my morning alarm. I never realised how involuntarily, we have been destroying such an important part of our urban ecosystem.
Kudos to the tireless gentleman who has taken an extra effort in saving the lovely creation. Not every one is blessed as Khatri ji. May god bless you Sir.
What a beautiful gesture. Respect to you Sir.
Wow.. now I'll also install few boxes in my house..🙏🙏
Thank you. This is so heart warming. Thank you Eco India for connecting to such wonderful souls.
Highlighting peoples who are doing good for the nature is not only inspiring us but also providing them a platform where they are get praised for their work. I highly appreciate your sincere efforts towards bringing into limelight something which has not been done by the current media who are busy in something which matters them i.e. their company rather than the society. Which is why there is certain amount of decrease in trust of the media which is highly justified.

Rakesh Sir is an inspiration for me and many more. Delhi state bird, Sparrows once were so common but now the number has dwindled that we rarely see them. Sir helped our school students also to make these nests and were instrumental in making them eco warriors .Lots of regards for great environmentalist like Khatri Sir.
We need more people like this man , what a good soul he is ❤️
These are the jobs for which we can call ourselves as the best species on the planet. Great step!
Rakesh sir is one of the finest examples to show that even one person can bring about a change if there is a will
These people are the real heroes of India who r doing superb work in saving the environment and maintaining the ecosystem. Give him a BhratRatna and give him incredible support
We have hundreds of house sparrow and other birds all around my home from himachal with love we have been feeding and caring for these birds for generations
Huge respect for this man and also scroll for identifying such people
Rakesh ji salute sir 🌺
It's a great achievement for Mr Rakesh Khatri who had thought and vision to think about the species. I know him personally he is hard working and Never Gives Up...Keep going Eco Roots Foundation
