The sanctuary functions as an educational center where visitors learn about bird species, conservation methods, and the importance of preserving natural habitats.

Visitors can access the sanctuary through road networks from nearby towns, with peak bird watching opportunities occurring during the winter migration season.

The sanctuary records over 8,000 migratory birds from 217 species annually, including painted storks, grey herons, and Asian openbill storks.
