This explains the status of a colony (Virugambakkam) in Chennai Metro on the day of polling i.e Wednesday, April 13, 2011. A news item says sarcastically that nothing about the Virugambakkam canal changed on Wednesday. The Garbage continued to float and the sewer pipes from several illegal occupants continued to flow. But unlike other days, the nauseating stench reminded people of the difference they could make.
It is a day of reckoning and the voters are free to express their anger and feeling and effect a difference in the polling of votes in that area. The public there are in fact totally vexed and fed up with the callousness of authorities and representatives that they must have decided to teach a lesson to the candidate seeking votes on that day. Well that is the only last resort left with them to express their uneasiness on the state of affairs in a democracy.
God alone knows in how many colonies in the City of Chennai such a thing still persists for the new government to take note of for speedy and satisfactory solution in the near future.
