Traffic near the Wavin junction in Ambattur Industrial Estate was affected for over three hours on Wednesday morning as residents of Mogappair and Nolambur staged a road roko demanding basic facilities.
The residents' welfare associations of eight blocks in Mogappair West and Nolambur organised a human chain near Mogappair West bus terminus. As the human chain did not evoke response from the authorities concerned in the Ambattur Municipality and Nolambur Panchayat, the residents staged a road roko at the junction. K. Kasi, vice president of Eighth Block Residents' Welfare Association, Mogappair West, said the roads in their localities have not been relaid for over five years. Frequent mixing of sewage with drinking water supplied by Chennai Metrowater was another complaint. Mr.Kasi said the letting of sewage into the stormwater drain network in the areas posed a health hazard.
The residents demanded that the Mogappair West bus terminus needs to be improved. They dispersed after the Villivakkam MLA B. Ranganathan and Ambattur Municipality Chairman K.N. Sekar assured them that a meeting would be convened to discuss the issues.

 Overruling an earlier order of a single judge, a division bench of the Madras high court has ruled that Nolambur Residents' Welfare Association cannot seek a direction compelling theTamil Nadu Housing Board (TNHB) to execute a sale deed at a tentative cost, having agreed to pay the final cost as fixed by the managing director of TNHB.

The original petition filed by members of the association-on which the single judge passed an order on September 25, 2008-said the TNHB had issued regular allotment orders to all the selected applicants. The cost was tentatively fixed at Rs 80,000 per ground in 1988 with the TNHB stating the final cost would be determined later, taking into account development charges and escalation in cost.

Challenging this, the association moved the high court, and the single judge declared the order as null and void and granted a permanent injunction restraining the housing board from demanding the final cost.

Way to go...

VGN Minerva residents Getting Support of Deputy Mayor



VGN Minerva residents are lucky enough... Wonder Why? 


Because they have Deputy Mayor of Chennai living behind them in S&P Foundation and he is listening to their Civic problems... 


Will other Nolambur residents have the same luck ?


Should try to meet and pass the concerns, before deciding on luck... Right !!! 


Here is the news coverage by Indian Express and IBN Live 



A march for better civic amenities



CHENNAI: For quite a while now, residents of Nolambur have constantly complained about the deplorable condition of roads and of garbage remaining uncleared in the area. But not stopping with merely complaining about the state of affairs, close to a hundred residents from the VGN Minerva Housing Complex decided to march to their neighbour’s house and ask for some help. “When we read that P Benjamin had been elected Deputy-Mayor, we realised that we had a neighbour who could make a change,” said N Mathivanan, who initiated the march. It of course helped that Benjamin, the elected councillor of Nolambur, happened to live almost in the adjoining compound.
“We sent a mail out asking for members to sign a petition about the amenities we needed and then, we fixed upon the idea of walking to his house and explaining our problems,” he added. On Saturday morning, out of the 572 flats in the complex, close to 80 persons landed up nice and early, ready to go meet the Deputy Mayor. They were joined by another 20 residents from another residential colony nearby and the march was underway. “When we met him (Benjamin), he was very gracious and invited us in. However, because we could not all fit into his home, we had an informal meeting outside where he promised us that he would come to our complex with officials soon,” stated the resident.
Much to their surprise, though they did not expect any immediate response, Deputy Mayor Benjamin along with Corporation and Municipality officials arrived at the Complex before 11 am and asked them to explain exactly what problems they faced. The overwhelmed residents then poured out their concerns: bad approach roads for nearly three kilometres from the main road, industrial waste dumped in empty plots overnight, no public transport and no streetlights. 
After listening to the various issues, he ordered immediate patchwork and said that other amenities would be provided after ‘consultation with concerned officials’, said Mathivanan. “He has assured us that we will be able to see a change in one month and we are confident that he will deliver.” he added.
