Chennai, the capital city of Tamil Nadu is located in the South East of India and lies at a mere 6.7m above mean sea level. Chennai is in a vulnerable location due to storm surges as well as tropical cyclones that bring about heavy rains and yearly floods. The 2004 Tsunami greatly affected the coast, and rapid urbanization, accompanied by the reduction in the natural drain capacity of the ground caused by encroachments on marshes, wetlands and other ecologically sensitive and permeable areas has contributed to repeat flood events in the city. Channelized rivers and canals contaminated through the presence of informal settlements and garbage has exasperated the situation. Natural and man-made water infrastructures that include, monsoon water harvesting and storage systems such as the Temple tanks and reservoirs have been polluted, and have fallen into disuse. -

“Don't Give Money to Beggars”
Cities Joyojeet Pal Madras “Don‟t give money to beggars” I remember Paati, my grandmother, pointing out to me that the beggars on the streets of Chennai were all part of a larger mafia run out of Pudhupettai. “Even Sivaji can learn some acting from them,” she said as two sets of leprous fingers rubbed against each other in a fervent plea for a meal in exchange for the Lord‟s blessings. I disagreed. Sivaji Ganeshan, who owned the face of vibrating contortion of cinematic tragedy, could make Paati part with much more with a shuddering jaw, despite his flawless purple suit and clumpy mousse. Perhaps, I thought, the pleader ought to invest in ticket to a Sivaji movie for a few tips, or perhaps Sivaji had something other than his histrionic ability to evoke emotion in Paati. While the senior beggars moved us none at all, the kids got a bit further. Sometimes a kid would come up to us as we walked around the shops of Mylapore, attracted like a moth to her crisp Kanjivaram saree. “Mother, mother, mother, I haven‟t eaten for two days, mother,” he would say, tugging at her saree without actually touching it. I noticed then how his little hand would just breeze at the edge of the saree rather than grip it and pull. In my early indoctrination into untouchability, I realized that not only her skin, even her clothes were out of bounds. Had the boy gripped the sari enough to strain her shoulder, Paati would have had to reach for something to whack him without touching him, and thereby ended all possibility of continued dialogue. -
