Rediscovering Chennai - Part I
Rediscovering Chennai
I was using web 2.0 tools like Google Map and finding out what I know about Chennai.
I realized that I know nothing. There is lot to know about India and Chennai.
India has similar highways with numbers, as I am seeing in other countries. How dumb I have been, without knowing the real routes in India.
For the sake of the article, let us just concentrate on Chennai and around.
Chennai is built around Chennai Meenakshi Sundareswarar temple.
I happenned to identify national and state highways running in all directions. Let me explain that...
National Highways will be mentioned as NH and State Highways as SH - henceforth.
(1) NH 45B runs from Chennai to Tuticorin and touches the eastern side of Chennai.
(2) NH 7 runs from Kalyakumari to Varanasi via Chennai, Dindigul, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Nagpur, Varanasi. Isn't it amazing?! My house is just on NH 7:)
(3) NH 49 runs east to west - Kerala to Ramanathapuram (and Gulf of Mannar).
Apart from these, there are state highways - nothing SH 72, SH 33, SH 73 etc.,
(1) SH 72 runs from north to Chennai mid.
(2) SH 33 runs from chennai mid to east.
(3) SH 73 runs far away from Chennai, in the far western part - but north to south direction.
Awesome connection with other states in India. This is only Roadways, we will talk about Railways more later.
Chennai is surrounded by smaller cities(clockwise from south) like - Aruppukkottai, Virudhunagar, Sivakasi, Rajapalayam, Theni, Dindigul, Manapparai, Pudukkottai, Melur, Sivaganga, Manachennai etc.,
We will talk about it more...

Chennai Election Update - Lok Sabha Elections in May 2009
Most probably Mr. M K Azhagiri would be contesting in Chennai constituency for the Lok Sabha elections. More about Mr. M K Azhagiri.
His daughter Kayalvizhi alias Vennila will contest in Kanyakumari, instead of Theni district.
Tamil Nadu CM Mr.Karunanidhi is mainly concerned about the fact that all concentration of Azhagiri's supporters would be focussed on Chennai and other southern districts would be neglected. Looks like that is the main reason, Mr.Azhagiri is not yet approved with a seat there. However, most likely this would happen...
