Summary:

Sunday’s event for school children witness heavy turnout of children accompanied by parents at Vestry school in the city. While the organisers claimed that they expected around 800 participants, the visitors’ count touched more than 1,000, and half-the-number of vehicles arrived at the venue near Major Saravanan Roundabout. "Hotels and marriage halls in the city should take responsibility in catering adequate space for visitors to park their vehicles. Poor planning and management were cited as the reason for the traffic congestion on Sunday as the vehicles invade a portion of the arterial roads outside the venue..
