There was utter chaos everywhere in the city and the traffic system failed and had gone haywire. This day being the 103 rd Birth day celebrations of Muthuramalinga Thevar, all the political parties had to flex their muscles and bring thousands of so called party men from all over in all kinds of moving transport which added to the sorrows of the traffic police who were just unable to control any of them. Deepavali is around the corner and being Saturday, there is unusual crowd everywhere in shopping areas all over the city. The traffic police should have understood this basics and outlines traffic regulations to control and discipline traffic all over the city. I had to travel a distance of 10 kms to reach my work place in T Nagar and it took nearly 2 1/2 hours to reach. All that I could see blocked, choked roads and congestion everywhere! What a waste of time , energy and manpower?
At a time, when fuel prices are spiralling and making itself out of reach of a common man, this traffic hold up and burning UN-productive fuel is unwarranted and totally not justified! The Government must act and stop holding public to ransom by political parties racing to garland a community leader who is dead long time back and does not find any place in the hearts and minds of the younger generations! Is there not a competent authority or a judiciary who can reprimand the governance and come to the rescue of the public? Why can't the Apex court issue an order to shift all the statues of political leaders from within the city to the outskirts so that life in the city can go on with its usual tensions?
