The only way we can change all these things is by voting for parties like the Lok Paritran. I heard that it is formed by IIT grads who have turned down lucrative corporate offers and have decided to clean up the muck in politics.

@ manoj I guess that party has been dismantled due to internal politics claiming it is only for iyers!

@manoj,
i am more concerned about those pointed tops on the guard rails.. they could be dangerous, should there be any ‘loss of balance’ near them

I dont get it. Whats wrong with the barricades at the pictures? (other than the arrows). Who went from making the city green to painting the road red?. Where is red and why?

The barricades shown in the pictures are far better compared to the rusty, broken one’s on many of Chennai’s roads and sidewalks. Who is in charge of maintaining these anyway? Even the arterial Mount Road (Anna Salai) sports a few ugly looking, broken, rusted, crooked, bent… barricades. Wish the sponsors maintained them properly. The median on Nelson Manickam Road all the way from the Nungambakkam Subway Choolaimedu signal to the Cooum bridge in Mehta Nagar used to have barricades with crotons in concrete vases built along the median. Even the colour combination of yellow and green was pleasing to the eye. It was supposedly maintained by a bank, but it has been destroyed at several places now and has turned into an eyesore.
