Yes, though the rain has stopped pouring on us, the effect of rain is still upon us. I keep wondering why the Government is not taking proper action on the drainage system. And at the same time I cannot keep cursing Government on this. Even though they do it at the correct time, the corporation will dug it for some other purpose. This has become a vicious cycle like Gov put roads and corporation open it for some other purpose. At the same time I cannot blame both of them. When this is happening will there any relief on the roads. Now a days it has become cumbersome for many people who lives in the lower area like Velachery, Madipakkam, Chembarambakkam, RedHills, Tambaram etc. most of the times even for a 10 centimeter rain that area itself is getting flooded like anything. Recently visited OMR, was neat I suppose and even in Velachery the 100 feet road, most of the West Mambalam streets have a very good drainage system and they are perfectly drained within 12 hours this is really a great improvement in this area. Kudos!
I assure that my friends and I will do clean-up by giving the proper drainage not only to my area but also all over the place I visit.
