Answer:
Jamui
Notes: Nagi and Nakti bird sanctuaries, designated as Ramsar sites, are located in Jamui district of Bihar. These human-made wetlands were initially developed for irrigation, but later became critical habitats for over 150 species, including endangered and vulnerable animals such as the Indian elephant and native catfish. These sanctuaries are crucial for migratory birds like the red-crested pochard and bar-headed geese. The recognition announced on World Environment Day, accentuates Bihar's role in wetland conservation and biodiversity protection.
