Jodhpur : Till now the flight of fighter planes was being affected due to birds at Jodhpur Air Force Station, but now the problems of the Air Force have increased due to the sighting of herds of blue cows around the Air Force area and the runway. If a Nilgai comes in front of an aircraft during takeoff and landing, the aircraft may crash. Jodhpur Civil Airport is also using the Air Force runway. In such a situation, there is a danger to passenger planes also. The Air Force has written a letter to the Forest Department asking for help. The Forest Department will soon conduct a site visit in the Air Force area and survey the Nilgai cows and propose measures to stop or stop them from shifting elsewhere.
The Air Force area is green. There is enough food for the blue cows to eat.
The dumping stations of different quarters of the Air Force are separate, due to which the blue cows have spread all around. There is Pabupura, Vinayakiya village near the Air Force area. Sansi Colony, Officers Mess, Ahuja Colony, Central School Scheme, Indira Colony and other areas of Jhalamand, where Municipal Corporation’s garbage bins are spread here and there. In these, blue cows are seen looking at the food items.
Herds of blue cows were caught earlier also
In the year 2017 also, the number of blue cows had increased in the Air Force area, when the forest department was informed. The Forest Department had sent its team for the survey. At that time the entire area was locked and the blue cows were surrounded. The Forest Department had tranquilized 9 Nilgai cows and dumped them in the forest. At that time the Forest Department had also given some suggestions to the Air Force officials, but now again the number of blue cows has increased.
The Air Force has asked for our help. We will visit the site of the Air Force area and get information about Nilgai. Will take some action after that.
