A charitable institution in Mysuru has kept water tanks across the city to quench the thirst of birds and animals in the searing summer heat.
KMPK Charitable Trust, Mysuru, has kept about 35 to 40 water tanks, each having a capacity ranging from 50 to 75 litres, in different parts of the city to quench the thirst of birds and animals like dogs, monkeys, cows etc.
“We were keeping bowls and tying other containers to the trees for the benefit of animals and birds. But, with the heat reaching record levels during the ensuing summer, parching the throats of humans and animals, the Trust decided to keep water tanks at different places in the city,” said Vikram Iyengar from the Trust.
