  • There is no limit to the amount of garbage dumped on both sides of the Thoraipakkam Pallavaram radial road in spite of all the notifications in the press that all steps to prevent unauthorised dumping of garbage were being followed.There is not even one single responsible person in the government who has the guts to stop this unauthorised garbage dumping which goes on un abatedly round the clock.In addition to the garbage dumping,unauthorised burning of garbage is taking place every single day as there are a lot of rag pickers in thoraipakkam area who thrive on the money obtained from selling materials gathered from such garbage which they do every day.Unless strict rules are followed by all agencies there is no hope for the suffering residents in the areas around Thoraipakkam and beyond.
  • cant the politicians strike for such illegal activities?? Wat s Ramadoss ji doing..
  • It is quite amusing to see the signboards on the southern side of the Thoraipakkam Pallavaram radial road with the sign stating "Litter free " whereas just across the same road on the northern side the same local authorities should have put up a sign stating "Free Litter Zone" because there are hillocks of all kinds of smelling,rotten garbage which is more then 20 feet high.I wish the union minister Mr T.R.Baalu (whose constituancy this area falls under)would take a few minutes of his time and see for himself the unhealthy conditions prevailing in this area which is leading to several residents in the adjacant colonies to suffer from all kinds of diseases and infections.
  • The entire road connecting pallikaranai and thoraipakkam is a treat to watch with the huge pelicans flying across. But the problem now is garbage dumping. It's so huge that it's started to stink.Even the lake near the garbage has turned red.Someone should come forward or we the wildlife enthusiasists must take some action..
