V. Shanta and S. Pandiselvi, long-time residents, say they dread monsoon. Residents say the rising level of stagnant sewage water in Kiruthumal channel often spills on to the streets during rain. Mini earth movers have been deployed and regular cleaning has been done to avoid major flooding during rain, he says. Places such as St. Mary’s school vicinity, Manjanakara Street, Kamarajapuram and areas near Tirumalai Nayak Palace are flooded during monsoon. “Many have come and taken note of the road conditions but nothing has come of their visits,” Ms. Shanta says.
