Anand Reddy

Anand Reddy, an IFS officer started the "Galor Samarpan Abhiyaan" by urging kids to give up killing birds with a galor (slingshot) while preaching the slogan "Galor Hatwa, Pakshi Bachwa (discard Galor, save birds)".  Reddy suggested a four-point solution by asking them to “voluntarily surrender galor”, thus, turning the Abhiyaan into a movement. "Kids from 68 villages took the pledge and 590 galors were voluntarily surrendered," he added.
