Street named after Vivekh
The Hindu
The actor died last year
The Greater Chennai Corporation has named a street in Virugambakkam after actor Vivekh, who died of a massive heart attack last in April last year.
Padmavati Nagar Main Road, where he lived, has been renamed as “Chinna Kalaivanar Vivek Road.” A Government Order has been issued by the Municipal Administration and Water Supply Department in this regard. The order was issued following a recommendation by the Corporation to rename the street.
“We are judges and therefore, cannot act like Mughals of a bygone era ... the writ courts in the guise of doing justice cannot transcend the barriers of law,” the High Court of Karnataka observed while setting aside an order of a single judge, who in 2016 had extended the lease of a public premises allotted to a physically challenged person to 20 years contrary to 12-year period stipulated in the law.
