JAMMU, Aug 4: In view of the kite flying season ahead, Jammu District Administration has banned use of nylon and plastic thread as a preventive measure.
As per order issued by the District Magistrate, read that as the Kite flying festival or season is going on and will continue for some time in the District and it has been observed that plastic or nylon (manja) threads are being used for kite flying in violation of SRO 126.
"Ban is imposed on procuring, stocking, sale and use of Plastic and Nylon Strings (Manja) whereas and the use of these threads instead of traditional kite flying cotton thread, involves threat to birds and human lives which is evident from the past reports and cases recorded during previous kite flying festivals and season," said an order.
