The Varanasi District administration has banned feeding of birds in view of precautionary safety due to bird flu fears and Shikhar Dhawan violated it.

The complaint states that it was Dhawan who has violated the order of the administration. Therefore in this case, Dhawan should be summoned and punished instead.
