In Velachery, the ongoing monsoon preparation has left an unintended mess as bags of silt, collected from storm water drains, line the road margins, threatening to wash back into the drains with the next downpour.
Simultaneously, the busy Pallavaram-Thoraipakkam Radial Road faces nightly congestion, not just from vehicles, but from food wagons that clutter the service road, leaving waste in their wake. Residents and commuters alike call for urgent action to clear both silt bags and unauthorized hawkers to restore order to these vital thoroughfares.
