Kathi paarudaa.....!!

Hi Gowri

Nice to look at this posting today morning which unfortunately I had not read until now on Kathi para junction bridge which I remember by coincidence, we were talking about yesterday night.... It is coincidence in one sense but the other angle to it is that it is a communication distortion...as perhaps you would have thought I was speaking about it only after reading your postings...right ?? Please dont start arguing that it cannot be a "distortion"...at least it has a possibility to become a communication gap, isnt't it so ??

Yes, this particular over bridge is some thing gladdens my heart and I feel so much belonging to this wonderful city (yes, for me, chennai is a great place to live.....) with the hopes and prospects of this city which is growing every day....inspite of all odds and deficiencies.....!!

There used to be a time when we had to go out of our home town for getting a good job and situation is fast changing that one can stay for the whole of the career in chennai itself without compromising much on his career and the pay compensation....I travelled in MRTS yesterday from Taramani to Chepauk and this new Train really matters a lot for chennaittes...even during the mid day in which I travelled, around 1 PM, the train was fully occupied though there were no standees.....The platforms are bit deserted and bit deceptive to compare against the actual utilisation....Like many other things, I am sure they too will improve over a period of time...and the large built area in each station is really made use off....for some commercial purpose.....(I have lot of ideas on how these spaces could be utilised...who is going to listen to me....hmmmm)

Till very recently,we did not have the comforts and the growth at chennai and I wish to shout aloud at pitch of my voice...."madaraasi enru solladaa...thalai nimirndhu nillada...."...I want to really shout with joy.....I am telling myself...."deey...kathudaa.....kathi paarudaa...."......

the last para is just to justify my title....he hey....

** Kathipara Overbridge **
After a pro-looonged delay, construction of a part of Kathipara overbridge in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India was completed and opened to traffic on Apr/09 ! Some relief to the choking traffic at this junction. When this bridge is totally completed and also when the overbridge near the airport is completed, traffic from Tambaram to Anna-Flyover will ease to a greater extent. Hope we will get to see that soon.
