Putting our strongest foot forward. We think pedestrians don't have to be apologetic. The most socialistic thing you can do is enable walking.

A circular was issued on 6.10.26 based on @Arappor’s representation regarding roads. Last night this is the situation of the 2nd main road, Annanagar being relaid after SWD work completed four months back. Even normal milling or cleaning was not done. Is this what people pay for??@omjasvinMD @AishRavi64 @chennaicorp seems like I was always right. Contractors are the kings. @CMOTamilnadu

Tamil Nadu Sixth Finance Commission recommended creation of Urban Local Bodies Immovable Asset Register such as Land, Buildings, Roads, Parks and gift deeds, etc., for its best tracking and maintenance. This Asset Register will help the Urban Local Bodies.

We are happy to obtain the clearance from Commissioner for Metro Railway Safety for elevated portion of the Metro Pink Line between Kalena Agrahara and Tavarekere. After considerable effort, we now have the safety sanction. We are ready to launch public service as soon as the Govt of India gives a date for inauguration. We have already written to them requesting for the date. We are eagerly looking forward to inaugurate the elevated Pink Line and take another step towards serving people better by expanding the Namma Metro network. There is more work ahead, and we remain committed to moving it forward. #BetterBengaluru

Boarding on AI 882 AMD-DEL is delayed by 20 minutes because Supreme Court Judge Vipul Pancholi & wife had to be VIP boarded first. They walk in with a posse of 6 guards + 3 AI staffers. Is this the VIP culture that India’s judiciary advocates? @MLJ_GoI ? #VIPculture 🚨#lalbatti

🚨IMPORTANT🚨 Delhi Police and IB are going to arrest me! If waving our Indian flag is crime then I am ready to face jail. If you have guts arrest me from here. When did waving Indian flag become a crime? Narendra Modi should note I am not afraid of him put me in jail if you want. @abhijeet_dipke

A white cane is not just a tool for navigating the world; it is a symbol of independence. On this World Cane Day, let’s ask ourselves: Can everyone walk through our streets with confidence, safety, and dignity?

What does this do for image of @TVKVijayHQ @CMOTamilnadu, though it is @chennaicorp responsibility? Are we so inferior, we cannot do even basic work right? Splay of Kodambakkam Station Rd, United India Colony Ist Mn Rd; shrunken, unusable station road footpath. Monsoon is here🧵

Given @chennaicorp record, @CMOTamilnadu should order a prominent board be kept at all public projects giving phone number of complaints authority; automated recorded complaints. If complaints are not attended to within the day, AE of GCC should be asked for written explanation.

If untoward incident happens at a construction site of @chennaicorp or @TANGEDCO_Offcl the seniormost IAS officer of the agency should be asked to explain in writing. The AE should face at least an increment cut or demotion. @CMOTamilnadu pl inspect Chennai works, save your image

What IS a high floor bus doing in Chennai in contempt of Madras High Court orders @MtcChennai ? Do lay off political party colours on public infra - next they will say model code of conduct violations! Stick to a single livery please. Public buses should be easily identifiable.
One very dumb thing they did is to paint them yellow to match their party flag. Just invert the colour scheme @TVKVijayHQ it will still be your party flag colours and not be mistaken for a school bus (and also more closely match the livery of other buses in the fleet).

Street parking on Viswanathapuram 3rd St Kodambakkam a major hazard at various points; this 90 deg turn a blind one. Cars are parked day/night. If you don't have parking, don't own car. Pedestrians are in harm's way. Clean up this place @ChennaiTraffic @chennaicorp @CMOTamilnadu
