சென்னை மக்களே,
பெருநகர சென்னை மாநகராட்சியுடன் சென்னை போட்டோ பைனாலே அறக்கட்டளையின் (Chennai Photo Biennale Foundation) சார்பில் பெரம்பூர்-சென்னை மேல்நிலைப்பள்ளி, புளியந்தோப்பு-சென்னை தொடக்கப்பள்ளி மற்றும் மேல்நிலைப்பள்ளி, (1/3)
The #Chennai Photo Biennale Foundation’s hunt for impactful images with meaningful stories is now in its fourth year. The latest edition of the CPB Photo Awards saw a significant increase in entries, with over 9,700 from 300 plus cities across India.
From the women who upset a 90-year-old dance tradition in Kerala to the people rendered homeless by the Yamuna in spate — the winners of the latest @chnpb Photo Awards tell stories of the times we live in. Team Magazine writes for #THMagazine

Yet another majestic building that combines finely the modern with the traditional is to vanish by the end of this year. The National Museum designed by G.B. Deolalikar and inaugurated in December 1960 is being demolished. Incidentally, he also designed the main block of the Supreme Court which hopefully will survive.
The nation loses not just a majestic structure but also loses a piece of its recent history which is the target of a systematic erasure campaign of the Prime Minister. It has over 200,000 priceless exhibits and there is no guarantee that this national treasure will survive the supposed relocation.
The National Museum also has a wonderful history. Its first director was Grace Morley, an American museologist who came to India for the first time in 1960 in that position. She remained Director till 1966 but later continued to stay in Delhi where she was cremated in 1985. She earned the respect of one and all and was referred to as Mataji Morley!!
students from our @chennaicorp school art program had the chance to interact with the Mayor of Chennai @PriyarajanDMK and the Deputy Commissioner of Education @SharanyaAri at the Ripon Building and visit the photo exhibition featuring all their photos. @chnpb
