An enthusiastic nature lover and accomplished engineer, Er. Deepinder Singh an alumnus of Giani Zail Singh Campus College of Engineering and Technology (MRSPTU) has unveiled a remarkable initiative aimed at safeguarding avian life in Bathinda.
An alumnus of GZSCCET, Electrical Engineering (Batch 2006-2010) and presently serving as the director of Jay Ess Industrial Gases Private Limited, Bathinda, Er. Deepinder Singh’s dedication to nature culminated in the creation of a towering avian sanctuary, aptly named the Bird House.
This towering structure standing at an impressive 60 feet is designed to accommodate over 1,000 birds offering them respite from adverse weather conditions and a permanent haven.
Inspired by his experiences in Rajasthan, where similar structures provide refuge due to the scarcity of tall trees, Er. Deepinder Singh embarked on this noble endeavor.
The genesis of this project stems from the unfortunate displacement of numerous birds due to the renovation of the Multania flyover in Bathinda. Recognizing the need for intervention, Er. Deepinder Singh, alongside his partners, including Jaspal Singh Sidhu, Managing Director, and civil works experts Gurmeet Singh and Sanjay Tanwar, conceptualized and executed a plan to provide a sanctuary for these displaced avian residents.
Utilizing innovative pre-fabricated kits sourced from Gujarat, the team ensured the construction of a durable, weather-resistant structure.
As a permanent member of the National Safety Council, Govt. Of India, Er. Deepinder Singh’s expertise ensured that the Bird House adhered to the highest safety standards.
With an estimated cost of Rs. 10 lakhs, funded by Er. Deepinder Singh and fellow nature enthusiasts, the Bird House stands as a testament to the importance of preserving avian habitats. Embracing a familial ethos, Er. Deepinder Singh dedicated this noble endeavor to his daughters, Hevinjot Kaur and Alvinjot Kaur, fostering a legacy of environmental stewardship for future generations.
