The works are inspired by the colours and patterns of South Indian saris, with checks and triangular designs featuring prominently.

Tarika began exploring weaving last year while working on her ‘Art of Happiness’ project, where she had painted tapestries.

“I decided to do one with weaving to explore a new medium, as weaving gels with tapestries and my art teacher introduced me to a city-based weaving studio, Shuttles & Needles,” she says.

She started with stripes on a Saori loom before trying weft clasping, which helped her create a step-like triangular pattern.

She later moved on to checks. For the works on display, she has used earthy, warm and cool colours seen in South Indian saris.

Tarika has been learning art under her mentor Diana Shatish for more than 10 years. “She coaxes me to conceptualise creatively and explore a gamut of media, techniques and movements. She also encourages me to draw inspiration from my life and Indian art,” adds the youngster.

She also credits the team at Shuttles & Needles with teaching her to weave and paint with thread.

For Tarika, weaving is not just another art form. “Weaving involves the mind, hands and legs. It promotes creativity and attention,” she says. She hopes the exhibition will also get people to look at India’s handloom tradition differently.

“We live in a world of fragmented attention spans. Weaving is an analogue activity that involves the mind and both the limbs. It also makes you feel grounded and enhances attention,” concludes the artist.

Located along the highway, the village has seen repeated appeals to the Kancheepuram district administration and the Department of Geology and Mining to regulate the units, with residents alleging severe disruption to their daily lives.

According to the protesters, rock blasting takes place at the quarries almost every day around 4 pm. The explosions cause loud sounds and heavy vibrations that damage houses and endanger livestock in nearby residential areas.

Residents also highlighted that excessive quarrying has generated thick dust in the surroundings and depleted local mineral resources. Adding to their plight, heavy trucks carrying quarry materials operate round-the-clock at high speeds, posing a severe threat to safety, particularly to children.

Villagers said they have submitted numerous petitions to government officials over the past 10 years. However, despite repeated assurances that action would be taken, no permanent solution has materialised.

Following the protest, which led to long queues of stranded vehicles on both sides of the highway, the Sriperumbudur Tahsildar, revenue officials, and police arrived at the spot to negotiate.

Traffic was eventually restored after officials assured the protesters that their grievances would be formally conveyed to the district administration and the mining department for prompt action.

In a representation to the Divisional Railway Manager, Chennai Division, resident Raghavendra Bhat Kadekar has listed out 11 demands of which the demand for a fourth platform remains an essential one.

“It will help workers travelling to Kakkalur SIDCO Industrial Estate and commuters travelling between Tiruvallur and Chennai,” he said. “Earlier, fast locals used to stop at Putlur, which was convenient for people travelling to Chennai for work. Now, as the trains run on the fast line, they pass through without stopping.”

Commuters said that the lift sanction happened almost three years ago, yet it has not been installed. The representation also seeks additional shelters on platforms 2 and 3, roof cover for the old foot overbridge, CCTV monitoring from Tiruvallur RPF instead of Annanur, public announcement and train display systems, and a subway on the western side.

“Drinking water taps and toilets are available,” said a SR official while agreeing that it was not well maintained. The Railways also noted that the public announcement system was serviceable and would be revamped soon, while the demand for a western-side subway would require an inspection and feasibility assessment based on soil conditions and passenger footfall.

The police have designated four immersion sites: Foreshore Estate, Neelangarai, Kasimedu fishing harbour, and Tiruvottiyur.

Over 100 idols were immersed on Saturday, with the rest set for Sunday.

Temporary control rooms and assistance centres will operate at the venues, where cranes and boats will be deployed to lower idols into the sea.

All-terrain vehicles, fire tenders, ambulances, trained swimmers, and watchtowers will ensure public safety.

Chennai Police Commissioner A Amalraj and senior officers reviewed arrangements at the immersion points. Police warned that organisers violating conditions or disturbing public peace will face legal action.

Kokila, a resident of Pallikaranai, had adorned the small idol with the chain during Vinayagar Chaturthi prayers at her home.

On Friday (September 18) morning, she placed it alongside a larger street idol. Hours later, she realised she had forgotten to remove the jewellery, but returned to find the spot cleared.

She immediately lodged a police complaint. During questioning, Balaraman, who managed the street idol, stated that the small idols were taken for immersion while their garlands were dumped in a nearby garbage bin.

Police searched the bin, recovered the necklace from the discarded flowers, and handed it back to Kokila.

The court directed the insurance company and the concerned parties to pay the compensation to the family of Padmavathi, who died in the accident.

Irfan car accident in Chengalpattu

The accident occurred in May 2023 when the car was travelling from Thanjavur towards Chennai on the GST Road. Near the Maraimalai Nagar municipality office in Chengalpattu district, the vehicle hit Padmavathi while she was crossing the road.

She died on the spot following the impact. The Tambaram Traffic Investigation Wing registered a case and conducted an investigation into the accident.

Rs 30.69 lakh compensation ordered

The compensation case was subsequently heard by the Chennai court. After hearing the case, the court ordered that Rs 30.69 lakh be paid as compensation to Padmavathi's family.

The court also directed the insurance company and the concerned parties to ensure that the compensation amount is paid to the deceased woman's family.

The TN State Transport Corporation bus, on route number 82 between Chengalpattu and Tiruvallur, was riding along the Sriperumbudur-Oragadam highway.

When it was near Oragadam, the driver lost control and collided with the private bus, which was taking a turn at a curve. More than 26 passengers were injured in the accident.

Oragadam police reached the spot and shifted the injured to a hospitals.

The woman who suffered 50% burns is under treatment at the Government Kilpauk Medical College Hospital (KMCH). The arrested person was identified as M Babulal.

Police said that he was earlier a murder suspect but was cleared of the charges a few years ago.

Probe revealed that he was in a relationship with a woman, who lived in Srinivasapuram in Korukkupet with her husband and kids.

Police said the victim’s husband, 43, who works in the film industry, had rented out part of his house to a woman named Seema.

According to complaint, when tenant’s son Deepak, 24, allegeedly harassed his wife, Balamurugan confronted him. Deepak and his brother Rahul, 22, then allegedly assaulted him.

Balamurugan suffered injuries and was rushed to Stanley GH.

Founded by childhood friends Arun Bharadwaj and Murali Ravikumar, the space brings together sport, food and the seaside, with the founders positioning Scor’D as a place to play and Brew’D as a place to pause.

“Brew’D is a space to pause and Scor’D is a space to play. Together, it’s the perfect blend of daily urban lifestyle,” the founders said. The cafe’s proximity to the sea plays an important role in that idea, with the ocean, sea breeze and sound of the waves shaping its unhurried atmosphere.

The menu follows the same global-meets-local approach, drawing from Europe, Korea and the Mediterranean while adding a Chennai touch.

Chennai-style shakshuka, not Caesar salad, crispy oyster mushrooms, loaded fries, bao wow, and flaky phyllo appear alongside speciality coffee, matcha, and fruit juices. The Elaneer Affogato, 2026 Cold Coffee, and Cold-Brewed Kashmiri Kahwa are among the drinks on offer.

“Today’s cafe customer is well-versed in global cuisine and trends from the Internet. So we wanted to create a contemporary menu that also reflects Chennai, especially the fact that we are by the beach and next to a sports arena,” the founders said.

The founders’ backgrounds also feed into the larger concept, with Arun bringing his hospitality experience from Miththam, while Murali brings his association with sport and marketing.

The duo said their shared vision was to create a space that works as a break from the pace of city life. “We grew up by the sea all our lives. We spend most of our time on or by the beach. So when we decided to come up with the space, we knew that it had to be here,” they concluded.

The restaurant, which has been in Porur for nearly a decade, was originally conceived for the neighbourhood’s growing tech corridor. According to CEO and owner Paul Perumal, the idea was to offer food that could work equally well for team meetings and family meals.

“During that time, there was nothing like what we were bringing to the table. We wanted to bring a unique concept with bold flavours so they can enjoy team

meetings and also choose to come as a family as well,” he says.

The new space expands the menu beyond Chinese offerings, bringing in Burmese, Thai, Japanese and Malaysian influences. Paul says the expansion came from observing Chennai’s growing interest in international food. “Everyone’s ate has grown, and we want to bring that to our brand without the hefty price tag of eating at a five-star hotel. Keeping it fresh and authentic is our primary goal.”

The menu also has plenty for non-vegetarian diners, with options such as chicken dim sum, chilli chicken, Thai chicken curry, chicken ramen and Malaysian-style chicken noodles, alongside seafood preparations.

Chef Rajkumar, who helms the kitchen, begins to explain as the dishes arrive at the table. We opted for the vegetarian spread during our meal. The meal began with the lemon coriander soup, made with fresh coriander, lemon juice, vegetables and mild seasoning. It has a bright, citrusy freshness, with the coriander adding a pleasant herbal aroma.

The sweet chilli lotus stem, however, is the standout. Fresh lotus stem is lightly coated and fried until golden and crunchy before being tossed in a sweet, mildly spicy chilli sauce and finished with sesame seeds and fresh garnishes. The crisp lotus stem, sweet-heat balance and spring onions make it particularly moreish. The shoyu vegetable ramen arrives as a big bowl of comfort, with hot noodles in a rich, savoury and mildly salty broth, balanced by assorted vegetables. The edamame miso butter, meanwhile, brings together edamame beans with a rich miso butter sauce, with the miso lending umami and the butter a smooth finish. Then comes the Khau suey, a Burmese favourite with a creamy, mildly spicy and aromatic coconut base. What makes the bowl especially enjoyable is the assortment of accompaniments - crispy fried garlic, onion, coriander, chilli and lemon - allowing the flavours to be adjusted to taste. It is a must-try for those who enjoy a layered bowl with contrasting textures.

The Thai green curry with steamed rice has a hint of sweetness while remaining rich and textured. Another star of the meal is the veggie Thai noodles, packed with vegetables and carrying a well-balanced amount of salt and seasoning. The charcoal Malaysian noodles are a smoky alternative, with flat noodles tossed over high heat with vegetables, aromatic spices and Asian seasoning. If smoky flavours are your thing, this one stands out. Tub Tim Grob is a Thai dessert made with water chestnuts coated in tapioca starch and cooked until soft and translucent, served in sweet coconut milk. Even after a filling meal, its comforting coconut flavour makes room for a few more bites.

For Paul, the expanded menu is also part of a larger journey. “We have great plans on the horizon for this brand and will soon be taking this global, with talks on the way for the UAE and US,” he says.

According to reports, one litre of petrol is being sold at Rs 107.77, while diesel costs Rs 99.55 per litre in Chennai on Sunday.

On May 25, petrol was raised by Rs 2.61 a litre and diesel by Rs 2.71. The increase took cumulative hikes since May 15 to nearly Rs 7.5 per litre.

Until May, fuel prices had largely remained unchanged since April 2022, except for a Rs 2 per litre reduction announced in March 2024 ahead of the national elections.

Why have fuel prices been increased?

Global crude oil prices had surged more than 50 per cent since late February following US-Israeli strikes on Iran and disruptions to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a key global oil transit route.

State-run retailers had delayed passing on higher input costs for weeks, a move the government said was intended to shield consumers from inflation. Opposition parties, however, accused the administration of holding back price increases until after key state elections.

The May 15 increase came after the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) expanded its electoral footprint by winning three of five state and UT elections, including West Bengal.

Retail fuel prices were first raised by Rs 3 per litre on May 15, followed by a 90-paise increase on May 19 and another hike on May 23, when petrol prices rose by 87 paise and diesel by 91 paise per litre.

On May 25, petrol was raised by Rs 2.61 a litre and diesel by Rs 2.71. The cumulative increase since May 15 stands at nearly Rs 7.5 per litre.

The increase varies across cities due to differences in local taxes.

The arrested person was identified as Sheik Abdullah. Abdullah was among five persons arrested and remanded in connection with the murder of Pandiyamani under the Tiruvottiyur police limits in 2007. After securing bail, he stopped appearing before the magistrate for trial, leading to a non-bailable warrant (NBW) being issued against him in 2010.

During a recent review of pending cases, top police officials directed personnel to execute long-pending warrants, after which the SCS team was assigned the case.

Since traditional investigative methods and questioning in his former neighbourhood in Tiruvottiyur yielded no results, the police team turned to technology. Using a 2007 photograph of the suspect, they applied an AI-enabled age progression tool to enhance and predict his present-day appearance. The police then circulated these updated images through their network to trace and secure Abdullah.

Probes revealed that Abdullah had frequently shifted residences after jumping bail, worked at a private company, and got married. He was eventually traced to the Tirumullaivoyal area, where officers secured him on September 15. He was handed over to the Tiruvottiyur police and produced before the court, which remanded him in judicial custody.

Balraj Second Street, St Thomas Street, Rajeswari Street and Ambedkar Main Road in Santhosh Nagar have residential buildings, hostels and small-scale businesses. Motorists, especially at night, face difficulty as the potholes are not clearly visible.

A resident, Gunasekaran, said, “Road restoration works were carried out before the elections. Now, the road was dug up again for replacing the underground sewage pipeline. This damaged the surface of the road. Dust pollution has increased and gets worse every time vehicles pass through the road. It’s particularly difficult for anyone using the road at night.”

Another resident, Anand, said, “It’s very difficult for vehicles to pass through this road. At times, vehicles skid and leads to injured riders. When it rains, water accumulates in the potholes, making it difficult for motorists to see while travelling night.”

A senior Corporation official told DT Next that underground sewage pipeline replacement works had been completed in Santosh Nagar, Balraj Nagar and surrounding areas.

“Of the 79 roads in the area, 27 have so far been handed over by the Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (CMWSSB) to the Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC) for restoration. Works are under way on 12 of these roads, while the remaining roads will be taken up in phases,” he explained.

Concrete would first be laid over the portions where the roads were cut for the pipeline works, followed by relaying of the tar surface. Restoration works on all the roads are expected to be completed by September 30.

Sriperumbudur was upgraded to a municipality in February 2025. This move raised expectations among residents that the town would receive better roads, improved sanitation, drainage facilities and other civic infrastructure.

However, residents say that more than a year and a half later, there has been no improvement in several residential areas.

They also pointed out that taxes have increased after the civic upgrade, while several amenities remain inadequate.

This is particularly noticeable as Sriperumbudur has emerged as an important industrial hub, with several industrial estates and factories located in and around the town.

The growing industrial activity has brought more workers, vehicles and commercial activity to the region, increasing pressure on the existing civic infrastructure.

“Our area is growing rapidly in terms of industrial development and other activities. But when it comes to civic infrastructure, Sriperumbudur still lags behind,” said Sundar, a resident of Sriperumbudur. “There has been no significant development in basic amenities even after the town was upgraded to a municipality.”

Sriperumbudur is also a historic town known for the Ramanujar temple, and the memorial of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi is located here. The municipality covers 19.39 sq km and has 15 wards, with more than 1 lakh people living in the area.

“One of the major concerns raised by residents is the shortage of cleanliness workers,” S Abishek, a resident. “Around 180 workers are required for sanitation-related work in the municipality, but there are fewer than 80 now. This shortage has resulted in garbage accumulating at several locations.”

Poor drainage is another major concern. Several residential streets do not have proper sewage and drainage facilities, resulting in wastewater overflowing onto roads. Residents fumed that stagnant wastewater and foul smells have become a regular problem in some neighbourhoods.

“Industries are growing rapidly, and the town is developing economically, but residential areas should also receive the same attention. People living here need proper roads, drainage and sanitation facilities,” said Karthiga, a resident.

A vegetable, fruit and flower market complex constructed at Sivathangal at a cost of around Rs 3 crore has remained unused for more than a year

The condition of several roads has also drawn criticism. Residents said that roads damaged during infrastructure works have not been properly restored, leaving potholes and uneven stretches that cause inconvenience to motorists and pedestrians.

The underground drainage project has added to the concerns. “Several roads dug up for the project have not been properly restored and alleged that the work is progressing slowly,” said a resident.

The Sriperumbudur bus stand is another facility residents want improved. They claim the bus stand is poorly maintained and does not have adequate space for buses, leading to congestion. Passengers also face inadequate drinking water, toilet and lighting facilities.

Residents have also pointed out the absence of proper street name boards in several areas. They said that the lack of signboards makes it difficult for visitors, delivery personnel and people from outside the town to locate residential streets.

“There aren’t enough public parks, recreational spaces or even spaces for children to play and senior citizens and others to walk. The existing parks are also allegedly not maintained properly,” said Ramanathan, a resident. “Even though the population is increasing and the town is expanding, there are very few proper recreational spaces for residents. The municipality should create and maintain more parks.”

Meanwhile, a vegetable, fruit and flower market complex constructed at Sivathangal at a cost of around Rs 3 crore has remained unused for more than a year. Residents have urged the authorities to open the facility and make it available for public use.

Residents said the municipality needs to plan its infrastructure based on the town’s rapid industrial and population growth rather than addressing civic problems only after they become serious.

“When Sriperumbudur was a town panchayat, we paid lower taxes and still had better facilities. After it was upgraded to a municipality, taxes have increased, but basic amenities have not improved. In some areas, even the facilities that were available earlier are now lacking. The municipality should provide infrastructure according to its new status,” said Elangovan, a resident of Sriperumbudur.

When contacted, municipal officials said that improvements had already begun as part of the first phase at an estimated cost of around Rs 5 crore. “After completion of the first phase, additional funds will be allocated for further road works. The Sriperumbudur bus stand is expected to undergo comprehensive modernisation soon,” the official added.

Regarding the shortage of sanitation workers, officials explained that a request had been submitted to the Director of Municipal Administration to increase the workforce and that additional workers were expected to be appointed soon. Priority was being given to the underground drainage and drinking water projects.

Regarding the market complex, the facility had not yet been opened as traders had shown little interest in taking the shops on lease, delaying its operation.

Tamil Nadu's electric autorickshaw market has been expanding, with more than 16,000 e-autos among the 5.52 lakh electric vehicles registered in the State till 2025-26. Yet, for drivers considering a switch, the choice is not simply about saving money on fuel.

The State's complete motor tax waiver for EVs, extended till December 2027, has removed one financial burden. However, drivers say several major hurdles persist.

A conventional autorickshaw costs around Rs 3 lakh, while an electric variant ranges between Rs 3.5 lakh and Rs 5 lakh. An e-auto priced around Rs 3.5 lakh reportedly offers a range of 120 km, but drivers say they need a vehicle capable of covering at least 170 km daily for practical work.

"Every month, when we discuss the adoption of e-autos, the high cost emerges as the main barrier," said Mohana Sundhari of Veera Pengal Munnetra Sangam, India's first union for women auto drivers. "Even with the State incentive of Rs 1 lakh, women struggle to raise the remaining Rs 2 lakh. The price of an e-auto wipes out the thought of buying one," she added.

However, drivers acknowledge the running cost advantages. "I have been driving an e-auto for a year now. So far, I have not spent a single rupee on maintenance," said owner-driver Rajkumar.

A conventional auto driver spends around Rs 500 daily on petrol or CNG while earning Rs 2,000, leaving Rs 1,500 in hand. An electric auto can be fully charged for Rs 100 to Rs 150. "Instead of spending Rs 500 on fuel to earn Rs 2,000, charging an EV once is enough. Saving Rs 300 a day translates to Rs 9,000 a month," Rajkumar explained.

S Balasubramaniam, coordinator of the All Autorickshaw Trade Union Federation, agrees on the operational savings. However, with conventional autos in use for decades, existing owners selling their vehicles to buy electric ones do not see immediate financial logic.

Charging infrastructure remains the biggest concern. Recharging an e-auto takes nearly eight hours, and the crisis is compounded by housing arrangements, as many drivers live in rented accommodations where landlords disallow vehicle charging.

"At the last minute, I dropped the idea of buying one because my house owner refused to allow charging. He already charges Rs 10 per unit," said Kamalesh, an auto driver.

Union representatives stress that public charging networks are severely lacking. "There are no designated places for charging," said Sundhari. Balasubramaniam added that public charging facilities are absent in key areas where drivers actually need them.

The repair ecosystem is another concern. Mechanics trained to handle electric autos are scarce. Though breakdown instances are few, complete dependence on authorised service centres threatens high repair costs. "If the government provides a 50% subsidy, many drivers will come forward to switch to EVs," Sundhari noted.

For Chennai's drivers, the decision extends beyond environmental benefits or lower fuel bills. They require vehicles that deliver sufficient daily mileage, accessible charging options in rented homes, and clear assurances on battery life.

The initiative forms part of a broader Rs 300 crore project announced by the Municipal Administration and Water Supply (MAWS) department during the recent assembly session, covering a distance of 360 km across the city.

Speaking to DT Next, GCC Commissioner GS Sameeran said detailed estimates have been prepared for the stretches. "As a first phase, roads worth Rs 150 crore will commence, and priority will be given to BRR roads, which will be taken up before the monsoon or during the dry spell between the northeast monsoons. The sanctions are expected by the first week of October," he said.

According to MAWS officials, the objective is to build durable roads without rushing the laying process, which often results in poor quality. Full-fledged works will resume after the monsoon. "GCC has to use the pre-monsoon period to complete the base work so that tenders can be floated and quality works can begin immediately after the monsoon," an official explained.

Civic body sources revealed that GCC has submitted a zone-wise list of damaged roads to Tamil Nadu Urban Finance and Infrastructure Development Corporation Ltd (TUFIDCO), where a state quality monitoring team is currently conducting appraisals.

Once the appraisal process concludes, tenders will be floated and finalised. Bituminous material prices have been fixed through Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), and around 800 damaged roads are likely to be resurfaced.

Meanwhile, residents in North Chennai have urged the civic body to expedite the works. TK Shanmugam, president of the Federation of North Chennai Residents’ Welfare Association (FNCRWA), pointed out that main and interior roads in Madhavaram and Manali are in worse condition. Highlighting Muthamil Nagar and Kadumbadi Amman Koil Street in Kodungaiyur, he noted that the battered stretches pose risks to two-wheeler riders and will deteriorate further during the monsoon.

However, financial bottlenecks threaten execution speed. R Rama Rao, president of the GCC Contractors' Association, explained that GCC already owes over Rs 2,500 crore to contractors, forcing many to depend on bank loans to carry out works. "Contractors are hesitant to take up fresh work with GCC due to this uncertainty. Because of pending payments, only a few contractors with strong financial backing can sustain their operations," he pointed out.

The bench of Justices, PT Asha and N Mala, observed that welfare must be understood in its widest sense, including moral and religious welfare along with physical well-being.

It noted that the Guardian and Wards Act, 1890, and the Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act, 1956, regard the welfare of a minor as the paramount factor for courts to consider.

The court was hearing an appeal filed by the mother against the Family Court’s order rejecting her plea seeking custody of her two minor children.

The mother claimed that she had taken care of her husband and children but was sent out of the matrimonial home following a misunderstanding, while the children continued to remain with the father.

The father, however, alleged that the mother had illicit relationships and had no regard for the children.

He claimed that her WhatsApp chats showed that she had sent nude and semi-nude photos to other men and made late-night video calls, and argued that she was unfit to be given custody of the children.

He, however, said that she was free to meet the children at a common place.

After hearing the petition, the court found merit in the father’s argument and took note of the pendrive and cellphone produced by him before the Family Court, which contained nude and semi-nude photos of the mother.

It also noted that the mother had admitted in her evidence that she had conversations with several men.

“All these allegations point to a person with low moral fibre, whose company would be detrimental to the welfare and well-being of the two minor children who are at an impressionable age,” the court observed.

Therefore, it held that the Family Court had rightly rejected her custody plea after considering the overall well-being of the children. Finding no reason to interfere with the order, the High Court dismissed the appeal.

Medicos at Vidhai Birthing Centre and Hospital in Mylapore stated the birth was part of its approach to conscious birthing, which encourages women to understand their options and participate in decisions during labour.

Water birth involves labouring in a specially designed pool of warm water and, when appropriate, delivering the baby in the water. Warm-water immersion can help women relax, ease discomfort and move more freely during labour.

However, the hospital stressed that water birth is not suitable for every woman.

Proper assessment of the mother and baby, infection-control measures, monitoring and trained medical staff are essential. A planned water birth may also be changed if medical intervention becomes necessary.

“A mother’s choices should be heard and respected. When pregnancy and labour remain low-risk, we support her body’s natural process. When medical intervention becomes necessary, our responsibility is to recognise it and act appropriately,” said Dr J Nandini, founder and medical director, Vidhai Birthing Centre and Hospital.

The mother who underwent the centre’s first water birth described the experience as positive and reassuring, particularly appreciating the support and communication from the medical team.

The centre’s private birthing suites also allow mothers to have family support while maintaining access to medical care.

“A beautiful birth is not defined by where or how the baby is born. It is a birth where the mother feels safe, heard, respected and cared for, while both mother and baby receive the medical care they need,” Dr Nandini added.

Harish Kumar, a final-year Mechanical Engineering student staying at an Anna University hostel, died at the Government Kilpauk Medical College Hospital. According to the Health Department, he died of scrub typhus, a bacterial infection transmitted through the bite of infected mites, and its complications.

Meanwhile, several students staying in the university hostels have reportedly developed fever. One student diagnosed with dengue is undergoing treatment at the Government Rajiv Gandhi General Hospital.

Following the reports, Greater Chennai Corporation and university staff jointly carried out an intensive cleaning and sanitation drive on the Guindy campus on Saturday. A medical camp was also organised to screen students staying in the hostels.

Around 4,900 students stay in 22 hostels on the Anna University Guindy campus, including 15 hostels for male students and seven for female students. Medical camps are scheduled to be held on Monday at the university’s constituent institutions, including the Madras Institute of Technology (MIT) in Chromepet and the Alagappa College of Technology (AC Tech) in Guindy.

A dedicated help line number has also been provided for Divyangan passengers who want to book mobility support. The Railways has displayed information on porter services and the prescribed charges at suitable locations inside the station. The assistance facility will remain available on a temporary basis until the new footbridge is commissioned, the Railways said.

A total of 18 wheelchairs that can access all platforms will now be available from the Gandhi Irwin road entrance. Signage installed at the main entrance will guide passengers towards the route. The new 18m wide footbridge, being built between the Gandhi Irwin Road and Poonamallee Road, will have six escalators and five lifts, providing access to all platforms. The facility is expected to be completed by the end of this year.

The announcement follows concerns raised by wheelchair users over access to platforms during the redevelopment, particularly on the 11A side and from the Metro-side entrance. At Tambaram, the division has stationed 13 wheelchairs. A feasibility study has also been conducted for temporarily operating battery-operated vehicles from platform 1A to ease passenger movement during the redevelopment. An 8m wide footbridge with lifts and escalators, connecting all platforms at Tambaram, is under construction and is expected to be completed by the end of 2026.

An MoU to this effect was signed in the presence of Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay at the Secretariat on Friday.

This will be Walgreens’s first GCC in India, focusing on technology and commerce services, and will be established at DLF Downtown in Taramani.

In a statement, the State government said that the MoU would boost the State government’s efforts to create more high-value jobs in the State. “The MoU is an example of the State emerging as a hub for technology and commerce services,” the statement said.

Walgreens operates in pharmacy services, healthcare and consumer health products in the US.

Having decided to establish its first Global Capability Centre in India, the company has signed its first MoU after Chief Minister Vijay returned from London.

The State government said that the CM’s maiden visit had resulted in investment proposals worth Rs 15,300 crore, with the proposed projects expected to create more than 10,000 direct and indirect employment opportunities.

Industries Minister S Keerthana, Chief Secretary M Sai Kumar and Additional Chief Secretary of the department S Vijayakumar participated in the event.

According to reports, one litre of petrol is being sold at Rs 107.77, while diesel costs Rs 99.55 per litre in Chennai on Saturday.

On May 25, petrol was raised by Rs 2.61 a litre and diesel by Rs 2.71. The increase took cumulative hikes since May 15 to nearly Rs 7.5 per litre.

Until May, fuel prices had largely remained unchanged since April 2022, except for a Rs 2 per litre reduction announced in March 2024 ahead of the national elections.

Why have fuel prices been increased?

Global crude oil prices had surged more than 50 per cent since late February following US-Israeli strikes on Iran and disruptions to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a key global oil transit route.

State-run retailers had delayed passing on higher input costs for weeks, a move the government said was intended to shield consumers from inflation. Opposition parties, however, accused the administration of holding back price increases until after key state elections.

The May 15 increase came after the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) expanded its electoral footprint by winning three of five state and UT elections, including West Bengal.

Retail fuel prices were first raised by Rs 3 per litre on May 15, followed by a 90-paise increase on May 19 and another hike on May 23, when petrol prices rose by 87 paise and diesel by 91 paise per litre.

On May 25, petrol was raised by Rs 2.61 a litre and diesel by Rs 2.71. The cumulative increase since May 15 stands at nearly Rs 7.5 per litre.

The increase varies across cities due to differences in local taxes.

Contesting this, fishermen held a meeting at Sreenivasapuram beach on Tuesday, stating that the land was originally acquired from Mullikuppam fishermen under the Slum Clearance Mallikuppam Area General Improvement Scheme during 1956-57. Citing GO 3313 of 1957 and related 1956 records, they said they were gathering documents to establish ownership.

According to the nearly 70-year-old document accessed by DT Next, the scheme covered 99 grounds housing 260 families and aimed to rehabilitate all bona fide residents on open plots formed on the existing slum site and adjoining government land.

Neithal Makkal Katchi leader K Bharathi said the government had initially promised individual villas of 875 sqft to the displaced fishermen. "However, in the late 1960s, the government provided one-plus-one tenements and also moved residents from other villages here," he said.

Bharathi added that the DMK government later built TNHB staff quarters on the land, which were demolished in the 2000s due to age. "The land remained vacant for nearly two decades before the government reclassified it under the revenue department in 2023. We are collecting documents to reclaim the plot and seek political support," he said.

CHANGING HANDS, PURPOSE

1957 - State government procures land
1960s - Builds tenements for fishing community
1970s - DMK govt builds quarters for govt staff  
2010s - Move to demolish and rebuild the quarters

Police arrested the woman and recovered the stolen gold chain and mobile phone from her within an hour.

Subramanian (78), a retired professor from the Madras Veterinary College, and his wife Nirmala (74), a retired teacher of Government Higher Secondary School in Nanganallur, were residents of Ayyappan Nagar, Madipakkam. Their two sons are settled in the US with their families.

As Nirmala required assistance at home, the couple had hired Chitra through a nursing and home-care service in Villivakkam. She had been working at their house since September 3.

On Friday, Subramanian went to a nearby private hospital for treatment. Nirmala and Chitra were alone at home. Police said Chitra told Nirmala that a tap in the bathroom could not be closed properly and asked her to check it. When Nirmala entered the bathroom, Chitra snatched the 10-sovereign gold thali chain from her neck, and locked her inside and fled after taking her mobile phone.

When Nirmala screamed for help, neighbours rushed to the house, opened the bathroom door and rescued her. After Subramanian alerted the police, Madipakkam police conducted an inquiry, registered a case and began tracking Chitra.

They traced Chitra to Madipakkam junction, where she was waiting for a bus. She was arrested and the 10-sovereign gold thali chain and mobile phone were recovered from her.

NM Veeraiyan, Chancellor of Saveetha University, inaugurated the facility and highlighted the importance of advanced infrastructure and practical exposure for students entering the media and entertainment industry.

The facility features South India’s largest academic studio floor, along with AR/VR/XR capabilities, an infinity cyclorama, 360-degree shooting facilities, green and blue screens, broadcast lighting and professional acoustic treatment.

It also offers integrated shoot-to-post-production facilities for creating film, television, OTT, advertising, digital and educational content.

Film producer and Vels University founder-chairman Ishari K Ganesh, who was the chief guest, said that the facility would provide students access to modern infrastructure and real-time production experience.

Filmmaker RK Selvamani appreciated the initiative, noting that aspiring filmmakers earlier had limited access to professional studio facilities. Cinematographer Manoj Paramahamsa said that SIMAX would help bridge the gap between academic learning and industry practices.

Pro-Chancellor Deepak Nallaswamy and SIMATS director Ramya Deepak were present, along with several film and media professionals.

Residents said several areas in Vyasarpadi had been experiencing frequent power outages during the day and night, with some outages lasting for several hours.

They also complained of frequent voltage fluctuations, alleging that it had damaged electrical appliances in several houses. Agitated over the lack of a satisfactory response despite contacting the EB’s emergency helpline, hundreds of residents, including women and children, gathered on a main road in Vyasarpadi and staged a blockade.

The protest disrupted traffic in the area.

Vyasarpadi police reached the spot and held talks with the protesters. They assured residents that faulty cables and transformers would be repaired and steps would be taken to restore uninterrupted power supply.

According to the Tamil Nadu Power Distribution Corporation Ltd (TNPDCL), the disruption in parts of Vyasarpadi was caused by a cable fault in an underground power cable.

The affected areas included Desinganandam Street, Moorthinagar Street and MM Garden.

TNPDCL said that the underground cable was being repaired and that power supply would be restored after it was rectified. It later said the repair work was completed and power supply was restored at 5.35pm on Friday.

The facility, located near the railway station, was free for public use. A Loyola College student said the closure of the public toilet left people, particularly those using the bridge, struggling to find a toilet during emergencies.

The closure has not just affected the public but also a former cleanliness worker, Govindammal, who worked at the facility for three years. Alleging that she was not paid for three months before the contractor's agreement ended, Govindammal said around Rs 30,000 was pending.

“I have repeatedly informed officials about the dues, but no action has been taken. I am now running a vegetable stall on the pavement to support my family,” she said, seeking intervention to recover her wages.

Will pass instructions to the contractor to undertake the required repairs, and an enquiry will be held into the alleged non-payment of the cleanliness worker's wages, said GCC officials

Corporation officials said there were 10 public toilets in Ward 110, but the facility near the Nungambakkam vehicular subway had not been included in the list earmarked for maintenance. Consequently, no maintenance work had been carried out, the officials said.

Officials said the matter would be taken up with the contractor responsible for public toilets under the Design Build Finance Operate and Transfer (DBFOT) model, with instructions to undertake the required repairs. The contractor would also be questioned over the alleged non-payment of the cleanliness worker's wages, officials said.

The reported rethink follows a high-level meeting chaired by Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay after his return to Chennai on Thursday, where the growing resistance to the Rs 1,200-crore project was discussed.

The proposed complex was to come up on 25.55 acres at Pattinapakkam, with a built-up area of around 20 lakh sq ft. The government had granted in-principle approval for the project earlier this month and constituted three committees to select an architectural consultant and finalise preliminary and detailed designs.

However, the choice of the coastal site in the heart of the city triggered sustained opposition from fishing communities, residents, and political parties. Fishermen from several coastal hamlets warned of intensified agitation if the government did not withdraw the proposal, citing concerns over their livelihood, access to the sea, and impact on fishing activities.

The opposition over the proposal cut across party lines. The DMK, AIADMK, BJP, PMK, and allies of the ruling TVK, including Left parties and VCK, questioned the choice of Pattinapakkam, with demands ranging from shifting the project to another location to reconsidering the need for a new complex.

The government had justified the proposal by citing space constraints at the existing Secretariat in Fort St George and the need for a modern integrated administrative complex.

While sources said the government has decided to move away from Pattinapakkam and examine alternative sites along the East Coast, no formal order withdrawing the existing site selection was issued till Friday. Further consultations are expected before the government takes a final call.

He was undergoing treatment at KMC Hospital.

Harish had reportedly been suffering from the infection for four days. He had initially consulted doctors at the university's campus hospital and was prescribed medication for fever.

Meanwhile, another Anna University student has been admitted to Rajiv Gandhi Government General Hospital after being diagnosed with dengue, while several other students at the hostel have also reportedly been suffering from fever.

Sources say the campus hospital doesn’t maintain proper medical records of students.

They alleged that details about Harish's condition, duration of illness and recommended follow-up tests were not communicated among doctors on duty.

A press release from CMWSSB said the work was being carried out on TNHB-A Main Road in Ward 199 of Sholinganallur to facilitate Corporation’s storm water drain works.

The 1,400-mm diameter main pipeline that carries water from the 150 MLD desalination plant will be realigned as part of the work. During this time, water transmission from the 150 MLD desalination plant will be stopped. As a result, supply will be affected in parts of Adyar and Velachery in Zone 13, and in Perungudi, Ullagaram, Puzhuthivakkam, Madipakkam, Pallikaranai and Jalladampettai in Zone 14.

Alternative supply will be provided to the affected areas from the 530 MLD Chembarambakkam Water Treatment Plant. The board has advised residents in the affected areas to store sufficient water in advance.

In case of emergency, residents can register on the CMWSSB website to receive water through tankers under ‘Dial for Water’ service. In places without drinking water connections and areas with low water pressure, water will continue to be supplied through tankers to static tanks and street taps without any disruption.

Police said that the trio arrived on a bike at around 1.30 am near a real estate office that belongs to Ravichandran in Kelambakkam. They entered the shop after breaking the shutter, opened a bureau and a safe locker, and stole Rs 1.55 lakh kept inside.

The gang then targeted a milk booth located near the real estate office. They broke open the lock, stole Rs 5,000 in cash and a mobile phone kept inside, and fled on the same bike. When the milk booth owner arrived to open the shop, he was shocked to find the locks of both the booth and the real estate office broken. He checked the CCTV footage and found 3 men wearing helmets breaking the locks before committing the theft.

Soon the Kelambakkam police were alerted and the team who reached the spot conducted an inquiry. They are examining CCTV footage from the locality to identify and trace the suspects.

Meanwhile, at around 2 am, another burglary was reported at a shop selling milk and food products at Tiruporur. The burglars broke open the locks and escaped with Rs 35,000 in cash. Tiruporur police have registered a case and launched an investigation. Kelambakkam police are also examining whether both the burglaries were carried out by the same gang.

According to the police, on September 8, Manikandan, 28, a known offender, was released from prison where he was lodged for a mobile phone theft.

The same night, he allegedly joined one Santhosh and broke into a locked house in Madambakkam near Tambaram and stole gold and diamond jewellery.

The next day, neighbours, who noticed the lock of the house broken, informed the house owner Padmanabhan (74), a retired employee of the Kalpakkam Atomic Power Station, who had left for Madurai along with his family on September 4.

Padmanabhan immediately returned to Chennai and found that a six-sovereign gold chain and diamond earrings were missing from his locker.

Based on Padmanabhan’s complaint, the Selaiyur police registered a case and began an investigation. The police examined CCTV footage and found that a duo was involved, but they were wearing helmets, making identification difficult.

Finally, fingerprints collected from the scene matched that of Manikandan. The police subsequently traced his associate Santhosh (25) as well.

Further investigation revealed that Manikandan, who has more than 10 cases, including robbery, theft and snatching, pending against him, had carried out the burglary within hours of release from the prison.

The police have recovered the stolen jewellery, silver articles and a two-wheeler used by the duo. Both have been remanded in judicial custody.

His body was retrieved from the drain on Thursday (September 17) morning. The deceased was identified as P Manimohan of Ayappakkam Housing Board.

Police said Manimohan left home on Wednesday evening after informing his family that he was going to a theatre to watch a movie. He later went to a TASMAC outlet near the Ambattur lake bund and consumed alcohol, police said.

After spending some time there with his friends, Manimohan and the others left the area. While his friends proceeded towards his house, Manimohan was reportedly walking alone along the road near the lake.

Police suspect that he sat near the edge of an open sewage pit running alongside the road and accidentally fell into the sewage-filled channel after losing his balance.

A passerby noticed Manimohan in the drain on Thursday morning and alerted the police. The 108 ambulance control room was also informed, following which an ambulance team reached the spot.

With the assistance of police and fire personnel, the ambulance crew pulled his body out of the drain and attempted first aid. However, he was already died.

His body was sent to the Government Kilpauk Medical College Hospital for postmortem.

Ayappakkam police have registered a case under unnatural death and are investigating the circumstances leading to the incident.

Police seized 300 grams of opium in powder form and 1.5 kg in liquid form from them.

Police received a tip-off that two persons were selling opium on SM Nagar Main Road in Vyasarpadi.

Based on the information, a police team intensified patrolling in the area and intercepted two men moving suspiciously.

During questioning, the duo allegedly gave contradictory replies. Police searched them and found opium in liquid form in their possession.

Police subsequently searched the house where the two were staying in Kosapettai. They recovered opium in both powder and liquid forms from the premises.

In total, 300 grams of powdered opium and 1.5 kg of liquid opium were seized.

The arrested persons were identified as M Subash Gora (23) and S Vikas (22), both from Jodhpur in Rajasthan. Police said the duo was working at a catering company in Madhavaram.

A case has been registered and further investigation is under way to ascertain how the duo obtained the opium and whom they intended to sell it to.

Police said Vigneshwaran (33) of Netaji Nagar 3rd Street, Tondiarpet, had installed a Vinayagar idol near his house for Vinayagar Chathurthi.

On September 15, he adorned it with the currency garland only to find it missing in the early hours of September 16.

The RK Nagar police examined CCTV footage and arrested Ruben (20) of Netaji Nagar 3rd Street, Tondiarpet, and Santhosh (19) of Patel Nagar, Tondiarpet, on September 17.

Four juveniles aged 16 and 17 were also questioned.

After spending some of the stolen money, the accused had Rs 5,100 remaining, which was recovered.

The two arrested were remanded in judicial custody while the four juveniles were produced before the Juvenile Justice Board for further action.
