Target: Mr. Narendra Modi, Prime Minister of India
Goal: Advocate for the conservation of the Great Indian Bustard to ensure its survival and protect India’s biodiversity.
The great Indian bustard, a magnificent bird species found in the grasslands and semi-arid regions of India, is on the brink of extinction. Rapid habitat loss, poaching, and collision with power lines have significantly reduced its population. With only a few dozen individuals remaining, urgent action is required to prevent the irreversible loss of this iconic species.
The conservation of the great Indian bustard is crucial to maintain the ecological balance and preserve India’s rich biodiversity. As an endemic species and a symbol of India’s natural heritage, its extinction would be a significant loss to the country and the world.
The solution to this problem lies in advocating for the conservation of the great Indian bustard and implementing comprehensive conservation strategies. This includes habitat restoration and protection, community engagement and awareness programs, mitigation of threats from power lines, and stringent anti-poaching measures.
By focusing efforts on the conservation of the great Indian bustard, we can contribute to the preservation of India’s unique wildlife and ecosystems, safeguarding their ecological integrity for future generations.
Therefore, we call upon Mr. Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, to champion the cause of great Indian bustard conservation. We urge him to support dedicated conservation initiatives, allocate sufficient resources, collaborate with experts and stakeholders, and enforce strict regulations to protect this critically endangered species.
The conservation of the great Indian bustard is not only a responsibility towards our natural heritage but also a testament to our commitment to sustainable development and biodiversity conservation. Through our collective efforts, we can ensure the survival of this remarkable bird and secure a thriving natural environment for the benefit of all. Sign below and demand action now.

I have been following the progress of this bird for several years. It was slated for consideration as the National Bird of India but the Peacock ended up winning. Maybe if it were the National Bird it would have received more care and attention and its numbers would not have dwindled so badly. It’s not too late to put in more effort and save this notable bird, the heaviest bird capable of flight.
