@cvkrishnan AC coaches with good frequency in existing SR is enough.
CMRL instead could go towards oragadam, Padappai, sri regions from kilambakkam, which might be connecting with new airport metro like a loop.
Say the government sets out to buy a mercedes, a dealer selling alto also will take part in the tender because of cvc guidelines, the alto guy will go on to systematically dilute the tender clauses, the government will get board approval to buy a skoda (despite needing the budget to buy a merc), the alto guy will win the tender quoting the cost of a swift dzire and the tender will get scrapped. This is the story of every government tender.
History will remember the lockdown not just for its challenges, but for how we responded.
In times of crisis, it is experience, calm leadership, and compassion that must guide decisions.
In Tamil Nadu, that response was defined by determination, coordination, and a shared commitment to protect lives — the most important lesson of all.

@teakkadai1 Reason I hate such posts is, it makes you remember the awesome food in Madhurai and I don't know when I would go there to enjoy it again.
Padikum podhe,
Naaku ooruthu ya...
I have lived in an area in chennai for the past decade where it is absolutely top tier dangerous especially at night with hooligans and criminals who are mostly high on substance. Many innocent construction worker friends in my studio site were attacked several times recently. One such criminal who was apprehended was just laughing without any pain when the police lathi charged as he was stoned beyond limits. Moreover most of these attackers are proud racists and blanket hate/attack people from other states. It is high time we acknowledge that many local political factions and several ‘caste’ based groups come running to support these mostly young boys who end up ruining many lives along with theirs. Can we please accept the realities of these incidents and act more realistically and save so many victims ? The lines between glorified violence on screen and real incidents such as the recent one have really started blurring and it is high time we act responsibly. Me included .
I’ve been privileged to watch the progress of this important engineering project for over 10 years. It all started with this humble manhole cover at the intersection of Boat Club Road and Chamiers Road. (1/n)
Tears run down my cheeks why I think of how even after 60 years of dravidian rule our people are still dependent on the gov for even the basic needs. This must be seen as the failure of the so called Dravidian model and not otherwise!
Average Indian IT fresher salary
- 2011 - 3L (6800$)
- 2025 - 4L (4500$)
33% drop thanks to INR depreciation from 44 to 88
Indian IT companies increased USD billing rates. But the IT worker pay dropped. And no R&D spend. It’s like feudalism became IT labour arbitrage
Recipe for disaster for sure.
The ones in proper NHs are good. Make one like those.
Kindly remove the thick ones (almost like 5 speed brakers placed one after another) and consider standard rumble strips on roads.
@chennaicorp@UpdatesChennai@ChennaiTraffic
Rumble strips are meant to alert drivers, unfortunately the 4-5 ones introduced near OTA to Katipara flyover were "too thick" compared to standards, it just hurts my back, my bike's suspension got broken. 2 wheelers unnecessarily slow down and cars just go on usual speed. (1/n)
