Volunteers led by V. Santhanam patch up potholes on 20 roads in Chromepet to celebrate New Year.
A group of volunteers led by social activist V. Santhanam celebrated New Year by patching up badly-damaged interior roads in Chromepet on Monday. The volunteers of the People Awareness Association filled the potholes on interior roads, which were damaged during northeast monsoon, with construction debris. Mr. Santhanam said more than 15 members of the association wanted to do useful work for residents to celebrate New Year, and they decided to patch up potholes on roads to make them safe for motorists. The volunteers patched up potholes on more than 20 roads, including Pillayar Koil Street, Radha Nagar Main Road, and the service road of Grand Southern Trunk Road.
