Chennai Chocked

The last few months have been amazing. For any stretch of my imagination could have I predicted this weather, this monsoon season. We had rains before, good ones, but never so many, so many times that I started to have doubts if the weather gods had mistaken Chennai for some other place

On one hand, there is the comfort of a less water scare city, but that is not here now, today, that is what we expect Chennai to be in the neat future.

Chennai now, has been battered by these rains, more may follow. This may not augur well for the residents of the already marooned city and suburban places, but it brings in relief, the total lack of respect for nature and the total scavenging of what little resource exists in this already exhausted eroded mother earth.

Keeping in mind, that the rain harvesting was initiated makes this all the more appropriate. Destruction of whatever left little greenery and marsh lands in and around Chennai also have added to the woes.

And this is for me, is just the beginning, with no end but a tunnel of darkness ahead, unless the authorities get some sense into their greedy minds.
