Overnight rains inundate parts of Chennai on Tuesday

At Kolathur, Chief Minister MK Stalin’s constituency, heavy overnight rains left many parts flooded. The incomplete stormwater drains and the works undertaken by the Electricity Department have made the situation worse, making it difficult for the public to access main roads. 

The debris left over from the construction works makes the roads slippery for pedestrians and motorists. Residents say that the condition of the roads has also worsened because of incomplete Metro Water and Greater Chennai Corporation works.
