It has been a while since we updated the blog. In the last few months, work on the single road that the Mangadu Town Panchayat has agreed to lay has begun. Two more houses have been completed and one family has moved in.
The most recent concerns surround the rainwater stagnation that has resulted from the rains. Many plots apparently remain cut-off now, but we believe that this situation will soon change.
One of the big agglomerations of plots is said to have changed hands and we may expect an apartment complex coming up at the site. This is good news, as it will bring more people to the locality and add to social cohesion and safety, besides giving a demand push for services. Already, a small apartment complex is under construction in the layout.
The kutcha road leading to the Poonamallee - Mount road remains a sticking point, as its status is not known. The Mangadu panchayat had conveyed in reply to an RTI petition that it comes under the Kattupakkam panchayat.
Keep writing letters to the editor in major newspapers and demand more civic services.
