Sparrows, once a ubiquitous part of India’s cultural and ecological tapestry, are becoming an increasingly rare sight.


With their numbers dwindling due to urbanization, modern agricultural practices, and environmental challenges, World Sparrow Day, celebrated annually on March 20, serves as a global reminder of the need to preserve these small yet significant birds.

Sparrows, known for their cheerful chirps, play a vital role in maintaining ecological balance. They help control pests, facilitate pollination, and disperse seeds, contributing to biodiversity. In India, these birds hold cultural significance, often referred to as “Goraiya” in Hindi and “Kuruvi” in Tamil, evoking fond memories of simpler times.

Their decline, however, has been attributed to factors such as the loss of nesting spaces in modern infrastructure, the harmful effects of unleaded petrol, pesticide use, and the rise in predators like crows and cats. Conservationists are urging individuals and communities to take action by creating safe nesting spaces, reducing pesticide usage, and planting greenery.

Initiatives like the “Save the Sparrow” campaign by environmentalist Jagat Kinkhabwala and the efforts of the Koodugal Trust in Chennai, which involve children in building sparrow nests, are showing positive results. Educational programs like the “Early Bird” campaign in Mysuru further aim to foster awareness and involvement among the younger generation.

As India celebrates World Sparrow Day, experts emphasize that every small action contributes to bringing back the harmonious chirping of these tiny birds, reminding us of the delicate balance between urban development and nature.
