MUMBAI: Officials at the Veermata Jijabai Bhosale Udyan and Zoo said it was the first time that the revenue had crossed Rs. 1.5 crore for a month—in May. While adults are charged Rs 50, the entry fee for children is Rs 25. The facility is also largely visited by groups of students who are brought for school picnics.
This year, the zoo was shut for a brief period in January owing to the third wave of Covid. However, it was reopened in the second week of February as cases began to drop in the city.
