Japanese encephalitis (JE) which is also called epidemic encephalitis B, is able to cause severe inflammation in human body especially the central nervous system (CNS). Base on the fact that birds are able to transmit virus as same as pigs in the local regions in India, here will be more discussions and analyses about the correlation and related impact of migratory routes of seasonal birds in India and JE epidemic regions in India base on the case studies in the upcoming articles. Additionally, to figure out the solution of the problem of the continuously JE epidemic over the whole country. Throughout the process, a tight relation between wild birds and JEV was discovered from the previous researches, which also reflected the tendency of JE endemic in regions in India affected by the distribution of bird sanctuaries. Based on policies established for other epidemic prevention before in other countries, a few suggestions were listed to give a supportive reference for potential JE epidemics. This can either enhance the security of citizens living in the endemic area and raise the awareness to wildlife around them.
