Set up on the premises of the Wetland Research and Training Centre (WRTC) of the Chilika Development Authority (CDA) at Chandrapur, the centre will start functioning from Tuesday.
BNHS has been closely associated with Chilika since 1967. With the efforts of CDA, and the forest department, BNHS has been jointly conducting bird census for the last 15 years during winter.

The organization will be engaged in various studies and reports including identification of air route of the winged guests at Chilika, collection of the samples, training related to bird census, publication of the bird migration atlas book and examination of diseases among avian species.
They will also revive the condition of Nalabana Bird Sanctuary along with counting of the birds, the sources added.
