LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
What a post-box!
Sir - Anyone who walks through Ram Colony situated between 10th
Avenue (Ashok Nagar) and Postal Colony 1st Street in West Mambalam
will notice the pathetic condition of a post-box. There is such a big hole
through which any letter posted will slip through and touch Mother
Earth immediately.
I wonder why this post-box has been kept in front of a house. One
would expect post-boxes to be kept near public places like parks,
libraries, temples, hotels, banks and educational institutions. As it is
we do not have adequate post boxes in Ashok Nagar. There was one at
9th Avenue and 10th Avenue junction but it disappeared all of a sudden.
The post box on 11th Avenue is very close to a dustbin which people
usually avoid. SMS or E-mail cannot give a soul (sole?) the satisfaction
that a letter penned by a near and dear one gives. So we appeal to the
authorities concerned to keep proper post-boxes in proper places.
We consider a postman the harbinger of happy tidings and anything
that assists this noble job of communication is highly respected. Dr.
K. R. Chidambara Kumarasamy, 40, 53rd Street, Ashok Nagar.
Dangerous trijunction
Sir, I am a 77-year-old retired pilot of Indian Air Force and a qualified and
experienced flight safety officer and aircraft accident investigator.
The trijunction of Thanickachalam Road, Thyagaraya Road and Malony
Road in front of Hindi Prachara Sabha is a potentially dangerous spot.
There are eateries, a bakery and petty shops at Thanickalam Road turning
where many cars, motorcycles and scooters are illegally and dangerously
parked on both sides of Thanikchalam Road where it starts to turn towards
Venkatanarayana Road greatly reducing the available space for buses,
cars, 2-wheelers etc. Those visiting tea shops on the edge of the road are
an added danger. Road dividers are frequently shifted and drivers of buses
taking a turn at this junction often pass close to pedestrians. At night, there
is a need for a ‘red light’ on the platform at the gate of Hindi Prachara Sabha
to show that it is a junction where vehicles turn right or left.
Also, along Thanikachalam Road towards Venkatanarayana Road junction in front of Spencers, a road divider starts and goes upto the end of
Venkatanarayan Road but there is no light to indicate the start of the
junction.
A bright red light is an absolute must due to heavy traffic, especially, in
the evening and night. Also, cars take the wrong side of the median and
proceed towards, Venkatanarayana road junction. Policemen quite often
permit this to clear the traffic. Some bikes and cars are seen frequently
speeding towards Thanickalam Road-Venkatanaraya road junction with
Burkit Road. I am amazed that serious accidents have not yet taken place.
Specific requirements are: 1. A ‘red light’ on Hindi Prachara Sabha
platform at the trijunction to denote a dead end. 2. A ‘red light’ in front of
Spencers where the median starts and goes upto Venkatanarayana Road.
3. Illegal and dangerous parking of cars/taxis, two-wheelers in front of
eateries/shops, at the turning of Thanikachalam Road, near the trijunction
should be strictly prohibited. 4. The huge tree in the way can easily be
transplanted in another suitable location. 5. A board to show Rajambal
Street next to the tree at right angle to Thanikachalam Road. 6. Effective,
suitable speedbreakers in front of Block “C”, Silver Park Apartments. 7.
Parking of vehicles outside the Pillayar temple and adjoining gate outside
Hindi Prachara Sabha must be stopped. 8. Everyday a police vehicle with
red and blue lights on top is seen parked in the most dangerous spot where
Thanikachalam Road turns towards Venkatanarayana road. This needs to
be rectified. – Wing Commander E.A. Murthy (Retd.), Thanikachalam
Road, T. Nagar
Need for speedbreakers
Sir - I have been a resident of Baroda Street, West Mambalam for
the last 20 years. We find it extremely difficult to reach Railway Border
Road from our street as drivers of vehicles plying on Railway Border
Road drive fast without slowing down or halting to allow other vehicles
to enter. My vehicle was hit twice and I have seen quite a few accidents
at this junction as vehicles from Baroda Street try to enter Railway
Border Road. The need for speedbreakers at this intersection is extremely important as traffic intensity has also increased manifold.
Further, this junction is close to a girls’ school. I took up the matter with
Corporation officials who wanted me to go to the Police Department.
As this is a request for the safety of the public, immediate attention
must be given to this problem. While I have seen several speedbreakers
installed in far less traffic congested areas within West Mambalam,
it surprises me why no

Award for service to cancer patients
By M. A. SADANAND
FAR AWAY FIELDS
Far away fields may look greener and exert a pull to make
you move from your hopeless porch. Show me a man who
resists the pull and I will, as my great friend Subramanian
Swamy exploded on Times Now and squashed host Arnob
Goswami by branding him ‘liar’ many times a few months
ago when five Indians were in Lankan death row, awaiting
a swing out of life. It is good in snatches as perhaps all good
things are.
During my school days in the High School, part of which
was in Madras, I used to dash back to my village in Kannur
and walk through the green paddy fields scrounging an
unseen digital scent of the grain within. It may be because
my core was in Kannur though the crass existence was in
Chennai, and the link was the faraway greenery. Now I look
in vain for the greenery since tar and concrete jungles
occupy the acres that in my youth were green with life and
a peg in one’s journey in pastoral life that fed the hopes of
a youth rooted in nature and non-competitive except
sportingly and in fine arts.
When, through multifarious activities a desired result
happens, the human and mechanical cogs lose individuality and become a mould and to that extent become a
process without any human touch, the perfect setting for
the kind of life we are forced to face and live in without a
thought of the far away field which is greener. A cog can only
be colourblind if you have to survive the harsh awakening.
The struggle to break out of the stranglehold created by
one’s aspirations is what drives individuals into amorphous groups called politicians, who are their own law
makers, to find the fabulous greenery, not far away in a long
time, but now at hand. That is why there are so many of
them with different hues and cries, the booty bags growing
cavernous.
Let us get Arnob and my good friend Subramanian
Swami to debate this and hope to see sparks flying, but not
hurting any more. It is time spent intellectually and noisily.

Two chain-snatching offenders who turned tech-savvy and
went on a shopping spree with
fake credit cards in T. Nagar
were apprehended on Wednesday.
Velmurugan (30), an engineering graduate, and Nagappan (32), a Std. 10 dropout
(residents of Tiruvallur), had
trained to make fake credit
cards using a decoder and an
embossing machine. After operating in Bangalore for a while,
the two came to Chennai and
purchased 11 mobile phones
worth Rs. 3 lakh, some gold
jewellery and other electronic
items from T. Nagar, using the
fake cards.
The two were nabbed by a
Mambalam police team on
March 25 when they struck
again at the shopping hub.
Mambalam police said that
the two were also wanted in a
number of chain snatching incidents in the city.

Despite being affected with cerebral
palsy, a motor disability which primarily affects
the functioning of limbs, Kumaran is pursuing his
doctoral degree in psychology in Bharathiar
University, Coimbatore and has also established
a counselling center named ‘K Point’.
Kumaran has reached some milestones beyond
his age. He had to quit regular schooling but that
did not stop him from securing good marks in his
10th grade from National Institute of Open Schooling. There was a gap of just over 12 months
between the time he quit regular schooling and
completed his 10th grade. He then finished his
12th grade in the same open schooling mode in
2006. In the meanwhile he began fulfilling his

desire to learn new languages
by learning French and Hindi.
From the moment he chose
psychology as one of his subjects in 10th grade, the subject
has been his prime focus and
he has become a research
scholar and is focusing on the
influence of EQ and IQ on the
wellbeing of adolescents.
Kumaran was the 2nd person in India with cerebral palsy
to write an autobiography (the
first was ‘One Little Finger’ by
Malini Chib) and his autobiography ‘Aanandha Thaandavam’ is the first book of its kind
in Tamil.
He has also written ‘CP to
CP: Cerebral Palsy to Counselling Psychologist’ (English )
which narrates his life from
beginning till now. The book
dwells on his family, teachers,
friends, quest for learning
languages, passion for cricket
and his views on political and
social support which people
with disabilities deserve .
He feels that this book will
give him a moral victory if it
changes society’s views on
people with physical challenges
at least to a small extent.

By Our Staff Reporter
Following repeated complaints from area residents, wheels
of cars parked under the Usman Road, T. Nagar flyover, a ‘no

The cars are being parked mostly by shoppers. This hinders
