The Udumalpet police on Monday arrested three men on charges of attempting to attack healthcare personnel at a private hospital in Udumalpet and damaging the hospital’s property. The police said that around 10 men visited the private hospital on Sunday as one of them was seeking treatment for an injury. As a few members of the group were allegedly inebriated, the healthcare personnel did not allow them inside the hospital. Agitated, the men allegedly attacked some of the personnel and damaged a window glass pane. On Monday, the police arrested Ranjith (27), Venkatesh (25) and Viji (19). Efforts are on to arrest the rest of the accused, the police said.
On November 30, a team of officials from the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), Water Resources Department (WRD) and Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (CMWSSB) conducted a joint inspection of a rainwater vent below the Chennai Bypass Road in Thiruneermalai. This marks the second time NHAI and WRD have carried out an inspection following a request being made by residents. They want NHAI to widen the vent located below the Bypass Road to facilitate rainwater drainage from ‘Nattukalvai’. The office bearers of the Federation of Welfare Associations accompanied the officials.
