Sky scrappers, BPOs, Shopping malls, Drive-ins, Multiplexes, Coffee shops....
The most familiar sight in chennai. Very busy 24/7. Spending more time and money for luxurious living. But these things still remain sky high for some people in parts of the so called developed metro CHENNAI.
It was really shocking to see this article in the HINDU dated 3rd September 2007.
The study says that slum residents in parts of chennai live in sub-human conditions. Most of them did not have access to quality water, drainage and even electricity. Lower literacy rate and unemployment prevailed in those areas.
This news was published in the very first page of the newspaper. Will definitely the grab the attention of many. But will remain unchanged like other such cases in the city.
The next time when you have an inverted curve on you face on seeing curd rice in your box, just think of these people.
