A gigantic sinkhole has opened up on Mount Road and is swallowing entire cars and buses. Hundreds of people in danger every minute. The government is hiding this from everyone. Share this to all groups immediately!!!
Piped water in Ekambaranathar Sannathi comes for barely 40 minutes at very low pressure. Upper floors get nothing, and residents queue at a single public tap from 5 am. Suggested action: Replace the damaged pipeline section, publish the supply schedule ward-wise, and add an extra tanker until pressure is restored.
The blocked inlet channel of Villivakkam lake has created a large stagnant pool. Dengue cases in the surrounding streets have tripled this season, and fogging happens only before VIP visits. Suggested action: Drain the stagnant water, fog the area weekly during season, and post a sanitary inspector contact.
Several garment worker hostels around Avinashi Road units are overcrowded and operating without fire clearance. A short-circuit fire last month was contained only by luck. Suggested action: Inspect and enforce safety norms, and publish the compliance status of each unit.
The government higher secondary school in Saravanampatti, Coimbatore has toilets that have been non-functional for nearly a year due to a broken water supply connection and damaged fixtures. Girl students are particularly affected — many parents report that their daughters are skipping school or leaving early to avoid the sanitation issue. Despite complaints to the School Education Department, no repair work has been undertaken.
Anaiyur panchayat in Madurai district has been without piped drinking water supply for the past two weeks due to a broken pump at the local overhead tank. Residents, mostly daily-wage workers and farmers, are forced to buy water cans at Rs. 50 per can, which is unaffordable for many. The local panchayat has informed TWAD Board but no repair team has been dispatched.
More than 15 street lights on 5th Avenue in Adyar have been non-functional for over three months, making the road extremely unsafe for pedestrians and two-wheeler riders after dark. Multiple complaints have been filed with BESCOM but no action has been taken. The affected stretch is near a school and a women's college, making this a safety concern especially for female students who return home in the evening.
Electricity distribution infrastructure in parts of Ambattur constituency has been flagged as ageing and unsafe by residents and local engineers, with demands for modernisation of cabling, transformer upgrades, and replacement of overhead lines with underground cables. Frequent power outages and instances of electric pole collapses in the area point to the urgency of infrastructure renewal. TANGEDCO's maintenance and capital investment plan for Ambattur needs prioritisation.
Residents of Ward 16 in Coimbatore West have been requesting the restoration of a blocked access route that serves as a critical shortcut for daily commuters and emergency vehicles for several years. The blockage has significantly increased travel times and restricted emergency vehicle access to parts of the ward. Resolving this long-pending infrastructure issue would provide immediate relief to thousands of affected residents.
Ward 42 in Coimbatore North constituency experiences localised flooding after moderate rainfall due to storm drains that are chronically blocked by accumulated solid waste and silt. The drainage network in this ward has not been comprehensively cleaned and maintained for years, and illegal waste dumping in drains is common. A systematic drain desilting programme combined with penalties for waste disposal in drains would provide significant relief.
Residents of the Perur area in Coimbatore South constituency have been raising drainage and road maintenance complaints since at least 2016, with little sustained remedial action. Potholes on key arterial roads, open drainage channels without covers, and flooding during rainfall are recurring problems that affect daily life and road safety. A dedicated ward-level improvement programme with clear timelines and citizen feedback mechanisms is needed.
The OMR IT corridor in Chengalpattu district handles enormous daily traffic volumes from IT employees, residents, and commercial visitors, but lacks multi-level parking facilities at key transit points and commercial hubs. The resulting on-street parking creates severe congestion on the already traffic-saturated OMR. Developing multi-level parking structures at strategic locations along the corridor would significantly reduce congestion and improve commute times.
