Why petrol&diesel outlet closed

After the recent petrol hikes. There is nil availability of diesel at few pumps and after few days the pump outlet seems to remain closed.

Aren’t there government bodies who look in to these matters.

Chennai has now become one of the top costliest cities to live in India.

Does Chennai respect water?

chennai corporation water

respect water bodies chennai

I have been hearing about the water problem in Chennai for long time, almost for the past 2 decades, very recently I stumbled upon a video on the subject of water conservation in Rajasthan. Please do take a look at the two images, the lids of the under water table has been open by these people to wash their clothes which is almost fit for drinking. These people are really unaware about the situation of what is happening in Chennai.

I am sure these people don’t have water connection at their residence, So I wouldn’t stop them from using this water, but at the same time I don’t want them to contaminate the drinking water.

I seriously feel that Chennai people lack respect for water, and fall a prey during the summer days. Check out the video on how water is treated with respect and how people in Rajasthan preserve water even while they get the lowest rainfall in our Country India.

I am sure politicians also play a major role for the current state in TamilNadu.

Speaking of which TamilNadu needs to learn, respect and to conserve water.

What cables are these? any idea

The first time I saw that I was under the impression that these are cable TV wires, then realized that they are power lines to all those individual huts running criss cross. check out the last photo, some of the huts have water been logging on their sides, yeah they are living in water logging areas, hope you understood what I am trying to convey.
hey, I didn't say that

Ladies Special – MRTS, A kind suggestion

I believe Chennai's current strength of ladies traveling by train is low. There was talk on the Daily Newspaper that the Tambaram – Beach section will have 3 compartments for ladies and the rest common. I serious suggest that the same could be followed on the Avadi -Beach – Velachery section. I see women are hardly seated in the compartments. Imagine one more regular train on this section will be sure boost for passengers like me.

Ladies no offense meant.

Does this Chennaite, respect other Chennaite – MRTS

Drunken Man sleeping on MRTS Train

Drunken Man sleeping on MRTS Train

It is very common scene in Chennai MRTS, in spite of a written communication on the sides of the entrance cum exit, people occupy the area and make other co passengers uneasy, imagine during rush hours where people want to reach their office in time, because of these dumb people neither the crowd could easily enter or exit the cabin. The worst part is they don’t care for fellow passengers.

I am not even sure whether the drunken man on this photo carries a valid ticket. By the way there is valid message which says drunken travel could attract fine and punishment.

U Turn or No U turn

Check out the photos below, The Symbol almost says U turn unless you go really close you will be shocked to know that it states “No U turn”
Shouldn’t the Inverted U Symbol have a cross to denote No U turn

Displays a U turn from a long distance

Oh No, It say no U turn

Place is near VijayaNagar, Velachery Bus Stand terminus. Thanks to Peter Balaji, for pointing it out.
