Medavakkam

Medavakkam

Medavakkam- a small area in chennai, currently a  fast developing zone, which got its fame after the commencement of the IT companies in Shollinganallur on the OMR rode. Medavakkam stands in the junction connecting the velacherry main road and the OMR with its medavakkam- shollinganallur road via Perumbakkam. This region looks like a triangle. This area has got its vast improvement following the IT employees buzzing in. This locality is the place for all kinds of people live- from laymen to IT Professionals. I also had the opportunity to stay here for a year and half. This place is entirely different from where I come from. This place is quite busy always with its always busy main road where the post lamb connecting 3 main roads and the crowdy bakeries and shops adjacent to the bus stop. We get everything A-Z in this region. In a year's time I have seen plenty of banks, ATMs, good hotels and high class cafe's, grocery shops like More launched. There is a famous church, temples(Sri srinivasa perumal) and few good schools  and colleges nearby. I can see a great improvement in real estate already.

One thing that always disturbs me is the dirty environment. We cant help the pollution as we have plenty of industries nearby and plenty of lorries carrying sand for construction of houses, water for the area, seweage cleaning tanks and many more. The bus stop at the velacherry main road and the turning to shollinganallur are very poor in cleanliness. I have seen plenty of cows standing and sitting on the roads.I think this area had been their previous home and we have taken it without theirpermission(Feel bad). I have also noticed many blind people come here. During the peak hours in the morning all the buses have passengers who literally swing in the doors. I have noticed the people clean their shops and collect the waste in front of the road.  But what about the road cleaning! I request all the concerned people to take care of this. This really needs a notice. People please note. We all know "cleanliness is next to godliness". I appreciate that we all keep our homes and shops clean.. Lets also take care of our roads. Its your customers and friends who fall in the muddy and dirty roads.people who can look at it, can manage,but please think about the blind people. During the rainy season, we have no place to walk amidst the 2 signals. Its really hard to walk if its full of dirt.I am sure in a year's time this region is going to look pretty good and remarkable.
