A fish rush in IT heartland

Thalambur residents send out rainwater into the lake and receive fish as return gift
Around noon on November 19, when the skies were showering Thalambur with the gentle force of a hairstyling spray, the local playground on Thalambur Main Road hosted a “fishing game”.
As they sent rainwater through a network of temporary and permanent drains into the Thalambur lake, residents received fish as return gift. Fish do swim against the flow for certain reasons, mostly to snap up oncoming prey.
Drunk on rainwater, the lake was skewed much like Antoine de Saint Expurey’s boa constrictor that had gobbled a full-grown elephant. With the grotesque sprawl, the lake brought some fish closer to civilisation, and unfortunately, the plate as well.
