Page 4 MAMBALAM TIMES: Ashok Nagar - K.K.Nagar Edition November 13-19, 2011 NO HOLDS BARRED By M. A. SADANAND Deepavali is not only explosive but also sweet. The cracker chaps afloat with their wares in the Island Grounds, to which space they were isolated from the humdrum denizens of the city, did a bumper sale if the thousands crowding the ENT clinics after the festival are any indication, in spite of the entry of the northeast monsoon which had held itself off deliberately to dampen the festivities at the behest of social activists who are really wolves in sheep s clothing. When the big bang started early on D-day, I was at the fag end of a dream in which Aishwarya Rai, the most beautiful woman on earth, was offering me a cup of coffee and I was wishing her the express-delivery of a beautiful girl who would raise the hackles of Cleopatra and the recently-dead Elizabeth Taylor. Aishwarya thanked me and was refilling my cup of joy when an atom bomb exploded perhaps a mile away and brought me back to Second Avenue, Anna Nagar Western Extension. I sent a curse to the bomber and told Lakshmi about my vision. Our day was made! It is good to see well-dressed people out in the open for an expo, especially when they ring your door bell and proffer a bag containing sweets and say Happy Deepavali. This is an acknowledgment that good prevails over evil and that, until 2012, the protective armour of good will continue to act. It is the absence of this protection that killed police officers Hemant Karkar, Asok Kamte and Vijay Salaskar when the Pak gang attacked Mumbai. They were bereft of bullet proof vests of quality and they died for the country. Lakshmi, let us send Aishwarya a good wish message. I don t know her address, but just write Mumbai after her name.

Representatives of traders associations gathered on Ran-ganathan Street for a meeting but moved indoors when told by the police that they had not obtained permission to hold a public meeting. At the end of the meeting, the associations issued a joint appeal to the Chief Minister to cancel the lock and seal This is how T. Nagar came into being and developed over the years A view of the evening market on Station Road in 1962 Until the turn of the 19 th century, the villages to the west of Mount Road formed a part of Chingleput District. Railways laid the suburban railway line from Egmore to Kancheepuram in 1911 with a station in Mambalam. During 1923-25, a township was carved out of the southern part of the erstwhile Mambalam zamindari. It was named Thyagaraya Nagar (T. Nagar) after the Justice Party leader Pitti Thyagaraya Chetty. 1928 The lush green Panagal Park, named after the then Chief Minister Raja of Panagal, was thrown open to the public. The Hindu quotes the Madras Governor Viscount Goschen saying that there was considerable apprehension with regard to the financial success of the township. 1930s Pondy Bazaar began to make its appearance. It was initially known as Soundarapandia Bazaar after Justice Party politician W. P. A. Soundarapandian Nadar. South Usman Road in T. Nagar, Madras as it looked on a rainy day on November 7, 1988 T. Nagar got its first bank in 1935. Indian Bank opened a branch in 1937. 1950s-60s Vegetable shops and small stores start coming up on Ranganathan Street. One of the busiest streets in India, it was supposed to be named Rangaswamy Iyengar Street. At a time when it was usual practice to name streets after the first resident, the religious and self-effacing Rangaswamy requested civic authorities to name the street after Lord Ranganatha of Srirangam. A scene in T. Nagar opposite the Mambalam Railway Station after a spell of rain in September 1986 1962 Thyagaraya Nagar bus stand inaugurated by Chief Minister K. Kamaraj. There were 650 Government buses operating in the city. 1982 There was a spurt in development within the T. Nagar market area. GRT expanded with a new jewellery showroom. 1994 Proposals to convert T. Nagar into a pedestrian shopping campus began to take shape as part of the Madras Vision 2000 project. 2000-2006 The period of extreme growth, as one trader body put it, when the number of shops increased by 300-400%. On an average 5 lakh shoppers visit T. Nagar daily. August, 2008 North Usman road flyover opened. Usman Road becomes one of the most highly priced real estate zones in Tamilnadu. From The Hindu Archives There used to be a public radio inside Panagal Park those days. A small crowd would gather there to listen to music and news. The crowd dispersed after the last news broadcast at 7.15 p.m, after which all the streets would become deserted. Nalli Chinnasami Chetty opened the first Kancheepuram silk saree showroom in the T. Nagar area in 1935. Kuppuswami Chetty, the founder s grandson, remembers that if sales crossed the Rs. 102 mark on any particular day he would get an ice cream as a bonus. Report, pictures: courtesy The Hindu Sathya Bazaar Continued from page 1 Krishna Kumar, passed the order on a special leave petition from the association against the sealing and closure of shops in T. Nagar on Oct. 31. Sundaram submitted that the shops were sealed without even giving the owners an opportunity to put forth their contentions. He said that the Government had brought forward an ordinance to regularise the buildings and it was to be made into an Act. Justice Bhandari asked the Additional Advocate General, Is it proper for the High Court to pass an order without even hearing them, when they say they are in existence for 20 or 25 years. Principles of natural justice demand that they must be heard and appropriate orders are passed on their applications. We are not saying anything on merits. The Bench, while disposing of the present SLP, ordered status quo and made it clear that there should be no further sealing or demolition. In respect of the shops already sealed, the Bench asked the High Court to pass appropriate directions after hearing the petitioners when the matter is taken up on Nov. 30. The SLP said it was directed against the sudden closure of famous business establishments, textile showrooms and shops in existence for decades. While the Chennai Corporation sealed 21 buildings, the Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority sealed six buildings on Oct. 31. As a result, not only the owners but also thousands of employees were rendered jobless. The shopkeepers were aggrieved that buildings were sealed by declaring them as unauthorised and illegal, when their applications for regularisation were still pending before the authorities concerned. The SLP said that in not considering their representations to orders and allow the shops to function, citing livelihood issues of several thousand persons employed in the shops. CMDA and Chennai Corporation had sealed 25 buildings in the first phase. The two bodies had served notices on 62 buildings since September. The deadline for about 30 of them is nearing. A recent review meeting conducted by the State Government noted that about 1.5 lakh buildings in the city had violated norms of floor space index (ratio of land to built-up area), parking and setback area. Supreme Court orders status quo showcause notices issued to them, they were deprived of an opportunity of proper hearing. The SLP said that the authorities had resorted to vague criteria in declaring the buildings as unauthorised without any guidelines. Further, terming them serious violations, water and power supply and sewerage connections were disconnected, followed by cancellation of trade licences and these were fraught with serious consequences. It sought a direction to quash the interim order and a direction to open their shops forthwith.

The trench in which Sarala died ticed her falling into the trench. She was walking to a busstop on her way home from a spoken English class in RKM Matriculation School on Krishna Street. She was working as an English teacher in a primary school in MGR Nagar. A post-mortem revealed that Sarala had died due to drowning. The report said that there was fluid in her lungs. A special police team picked up Krishnamurthy (contractor) for questioning. Some engineers and construction supervisors involved in the project have also been detained. Police who had initially registered a case under Section 174 Cr.P.C (Unnatural death) changed it later to a case under Section 304 A (Causing death by negligence). Since Sarala did not return home till late in the night, her brother Sakthivel and his friend Dhanasekar came to the school searching for her. When they could not find her they went to Pondy Bazaar police station where they were told to file a complaint with MGR Nagar police station which they did and returned home. Sarala s mother Hamsa, Sakthivel and Dhanasekar returned at 6.30 a.m the next day and were on their way to the school when Hamsa spotted her daughter s body floating in the trench just 50 meters away from the school. Sakthivel and Dhanasekar jumped in and took out the body. There were injuries in the head. Sarala was the youngest daughter of Muniyan, a retired MTC conductor and Hamsa. She had joined the spoken English class 15 days ago. Solatium Chief Minister Jayalalithaa on Nov. 6 announced a solatium of Rs. 2 lakhs for the family of Sarala.
