Incomplete stormwater drain in Arumbakkam inconveniences residents
The Hindu
They say dug-up portions near Poonamallee High Road have made the stretch inaccessible to vehicles
Residents of Uthanatchi Amman Kovil Street in Arumbakkam have complained that the stormwater drainage work, which has been left incomplete for more than a year, has made a stretch of the road inaccessible.
The street, under the Anna Nagar zone of the Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC) and located close to D.G. Vaishnav College, is directly linked to Poonamallee High Road. However, residents alleged that the incomplete stormwater drain work has forced them to commute an extra kilometre in order to reach Poonamallee High Road.
According to residents, the work began last year just before the first wave of COVID-19.

The draft policy for “Responsible Digital Use Among Students”, released on Monday by the Department of Health and Family Welfare, has recommended that parents set structured routines with clear screen-time rules and prioritise privacy, safety, and open conversation with children on digital well-being.
