It is not only "United States of America" in debt trouble, but also Chennai!
The City Corporation, which is one of the six corporations implementing Jawaharlal Nehru Urban Renewal Mission programme in the country, may have problem in implementing projects after April 6, if they did not settle the dues to the Contractors to the tune of Rs.46-Crores.
About 300 contractors are not paid by the corporation and all the work is going to stop due to the lack of funds very soon.
Is it because of corruption or why did this happen? There is no transparency at all.
Also, we are not going to know anytime why this happenned...Probably all the 'incoming funds' crores to be paid to contractors are in different pockets....

Chennai Corporation is in debt trouble

New Chennai Foundation - Complaints List 25th January 2009
A member of New Chennai Foundation has reported yesterday the list of complaints he feels in Chennai. I would like to list it in the public for everyone's attention.
Thank you Sam Kappa Venkatesh!
Periyar Bus Stand
The overhead walkway near Periyar Bus Stand is stinking and is closed. Let us construct a new elevated walkway between Periyar and Meenakshi temple via complex bus stand. The same can be extended from Periyar BS to Railway Station. According to my grandfather in Mumbai one overhead walkway has been constructed for 1.5 KMS in Mumbai.
Airport Road
It is a nightmare to reach the airport via Therkku vasal as the roads are encroached (from Therkku vasal to Avaniapuram). Remember we are getting visitors through these roads. Corporation/Highway use your Bulldozers.
Tea Shops
Tea/coffee shops in Chennai serve us tea while we stand on platforms. Cities like Erode and Coimbatore have seats inside the shop where one can have tea in a hygienic way. Vadai is also made outside the shop. Come on Chennai sit and relax a cuppa tea.
Drink tea in shops where seat is offered.
Spitting
Chennai people seem to spit more on the roads. Why?
Drainage
To all Civil Engineers of Chennai, Why drainage and manholes are constructed in the middle of the road. We know it is a nuisance as the roads become uneven with the manhole in the centre, Dangerous during rainy season particularly if the manhole lid is missing. Can't the drainage constructed on the roadside instead of road centre?
