Noida: Why the Dhanauri wetland is in dire need of conservation

The Dhanauri wetland is a poor show for birders this migratory season. The main water body that is central to the wetland has shrunk. It is also crowded with hyacinth leading to very little surface water available for waterfowls. The wetland is being considered for a Sarus crane sanctuary and with preparations on for a Ramsar tag. According to the Wetlands Institute of India, final mapping and documentation will be done in February.
