Mystery fever ?

I wasn't surprised while I was reading this about my hometown. Every time I go back home, I feel sorry for the the unhealthy conditions.

In the name of DEVELOPMENT, this small town, is a stinking garbage can these days!

Another incident from the outskirts of Chennai showed how grave the problem is. A two-and-a-half year old boy Dhaksinamurthy in Perunkalathur died of the mysterious fever recently. Residents feel that perennial sewage overflow in their locality had led to mosquitoes breeding which in turn has caused the spread of the disease.

After their repeated demands went unheeded, residents of Velu Nagar at Perunkalathur proposed to constitute ‘Velu Nagar Residents Association’ shortly to attend to their problems,’ said Mohammed Dastagir.

Pathetic - Perungalathur

I was shocked to see this photo in 'THE HINDU' today. Shocked because Peerkankaranai is a suburb of Perungalathur, which is my hometown.

I know for a fact that this is not a stray incident. Actually even in Chennai city, there are lots of places with open sewers overflowing in the streets.

You go to Perungalathur and ask the people about their hometown and they'll be proud and say.."IT'S WELL DEVELOPED NOW".

Is this Development?

This is shameful

I feel very happy and proud to see my neighbors from Perungalathur do well.

Thanks to 'THE HINDU' for writing about them.

When we see such success stories, it is so heartwarming.
