The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) on Sunday carried out the groundbreaking ceremony of a state-of-the-art, international-standard ‘Exotic Bird Park’ at Mulund (West), marking a significant step toward strengthening tourism and enhancing the quality of life in Mumbai’s eastern suburbs. The event was held at Nahur, behind Raj Industrial Estate on D.P. Road, Salpadevi Pada, in the presence of senior political leaders and civic officials.
