Services will initially operate in both directions until 9 pm on Sunday, while regular operations will begin at 7 am on Monday, offering commuters connectivity through 11 elevated Metro stations.

According to a press release issued by CMRL, the new stretch will connect Poonamallee Bypass with Vadapalani, passing through key residential and commercial areas along the route.

The 11 stations are Poonamallee Bypass, Poonamallee Bus Stand, Poonamallee Government Hospital, Karayanchavadi, Kumananchavadi, Kattupakkam, Iyyappanthangal, Thelliyaragaram, Porur Bypass, Porur Junction and Vadapalani.

From Monday, Metro services on the stretch will operate between 7 am and 9 pm in both directions. The last train will depart at 9 pm from both terminals — Poonamallee Bypass and Vadapalani.

Train frequency and timings

On Mondays to Saturdays, trains will operate every ten minutes during peak hours, between 8 am and 11 am and 5 pm and 8 pm. During non-peak hours, services will run every 15 minutes between 7 am and 8 am, 11 am and 5 pm, and 8 pm and 9 pm.

On Sundays and public holidays, there will be no separate peak-hour schedule. Trains will operate every 15 minutes throughout the service period, from 7 am to 9 pm.

The commencement of passenger services on the Corridor 4 stretch marks an important step in expanding Chennai's Metro network under Phase II.

The new elevated section is expected to provide an additional public transport option for residents and commuters travelling between Poonamallee and Vadapalani, including those accessing Porur and surrounding neighbourhoods.

Protesters who gathered in Besant Nagar were detained by the Chennai Police and taken to a marriage hall. Members of the All India Students’ Federation (AISF) and the All India Youth Federation (AIYF), who were marching towards the Tamil Nadu Secretariat via Sivananda Salai, were also detained, according to reports.

Badminton player Sandeep George was also detained despite not being part of the protests. The police reportedly did not pay heed to his clarifications, as per reports and social media accounts.

People across the country have been demanding the resignation of CEC Gyanesh Kumar after media reports revealed alleged discrepancies in the SIR exercise, which reportedly removed over 13 crore voters from electoral rolls.

Protests have been happening across cities, alongside the Cockroach Janta Party's agitation in New Delhi. The national capital was turned into a fortress on Saturday as police launched a sweeping crackdown, detaining CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke, YouTuber Dhruv Rathee and nearly 500 protesters, foiling their bid to reach Jantar Mantar, while the Opposition denounced the situation as "worse than the Emergency."

AISA president Neha Bora, CJP leaders Ashutosh Ranka and Saurav Das, and politicians John Brittas, Arvind Kejriwal and Pinarayi Vijayan, among others, have also been detained.

Waves of barricades lined the streets ahead of the CJP protest, with the deployment of over 30,000 police and paramilitary personnel, the closure of 45 metro stations and intensive checks at the city's border points, railway stations, bus terminals, hotels and other sensitive locations.

In a pre-recorded video message released soon after his detention, CJP leader Dipke said the organisation's in-charge, Ajinkya Shinde, would lead its protest at Jantar Mantar. The CJP asserted that the protest would continue nationwide, with or without its leaders.

The CJP has called the proposed demonstration against the CEC over allegations of voter-list manipulation during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls and changes relating to Form 6, used for voter registration.

Passengers are required to reach the ground floor of the parking facility and use the lifts to access the second and fourth floors, where their vehicles are parked. However, the lifts in the east section are too narrow to accommodate passengers travelling with large suitcases and luggage trolleys.

Ramanathan, a traveller, said international passengers often arrive with multiple and oversized suitcases. Loading their luggage onto the lifts leaves little or no room for passengers to enter.

As a result, only one or two passengers can travel at a time, forcing others to wait for the lifts to return. This leads to long waiting times and considerable inconvenience.

Responding to complaints, airport authorities claimed that the lifts in the west section of the multi-level parking facility are designed to accommodate passengers, their belongings, and luggage trolleys at the same time

Frustrated by the delay, some passengers are forced to walk to the Pickup Point Plaza opposite domestic Terminal 1 to board their vehicles. Others have to travel to the west section of the multi-level car parking facility, where the lifts are more spacious and can accommodate passengers along with their luggage trolleys.

Passengers have raised the issue with the Airports Authority of India and Chennai Airport authorities, including through the airport’s social media platforms.

Responding to the complaints, airport authorities claimed that the lifts in the west section of the multi-level car parking facility are designed to accommodate passengers, their belongings, luggage trolleys and additional passengers at the same time. They advised passengers to use the lifts in the west section.

However, passengers have questioned why similarly spacious lifts were not provided in the east section as well. They have urged airport authorities to upgrade the existing facilities to ensure convenient access for passengers with luggage. Passengers have also suggested installing clear signboards directing those travelling with luggage trolleys to use the west section until the issue is resolved.

Speaking at the Tamil Nadu Road Safety Conference 2026, organised by the Citizen consumer and civic Action Group (CAG), Deputy Commissioner of Police (Traffic) Megalina Iden said, "Pending fines are collected only when vehicle owners approach Regional Transport Offices for fitness certificates." She questioned the effectiveness of existing measures when motorists are allowed to continue using their vehicles even after violations.

Between October 2025 and September 2026, the police booked 26,273 drunk-driving cases. At Rs 10,000 each, the fines amounted to Rs 262.73 crore, of which only Rs 120 crore has been paid up so far. The problem extended to 7,000 signal-violation cases and 6,700 cases of mobile phone use while driving, besides over-speeding and helmetless riding.

Additional Commissioner of Police (Traffic) B Chamundeswari spoke of the difficulty in enforcing helmet use despite awareness campaigns and penalties. The police booked 2,84,123 helmet cases over the past year, and only about half the fines across the categories she cited had been paid up.

"Technology has made detection of violations easier, but it has not resolved the problem of non-compliance," the official noted.

Chennai's Integrated Traffic Management System, under the Smart City project, includes adaptive signals, incident detection, red-light, speed and lane violation detection, and automatic number-plate recognition cameras. About half the project is in place, with the rest expected to be completed soon, according to the department.

The concerns come amid Tamil Nadu's high road-crash burden. CAG's presentation cited 67,526 crashes and 18,449 fatalities in the State in 2024, against the national aggregation of 4,87,707 and 1,77,175, respectively. That is 13.8% of crashes and 10.4% of deaths.

Speeding was attributed to 70.7% of crashes and 70.3% of fatalities. Two-wheeler users accounted for 46.2% of those affected and pedestrians 20.6%, including 10,117 children below 18, while 83.3% were aged 18 to 60.

CAG called for a state road safety action plan to offer common guidance and resources while addressing district-specific concerns. The conference brought together officials, police personnel, researchers and specialists to discuss implementing the Tamil Nadu Road Safety Mission.

Modi will undertake a Metro ride from Porur Bypass to Poonamallee Bypass and back at around 11.30 am. He will subsequently offer prayers at the Jalakandeswarar Temple and visit the Brain Centre at IIT Madras before launching the projects at around 1.30 pm.

The Poonamallee–Vadapalani Metro stretch, built at a cost of around Rs 4,900 crore, features a 3.7-km double-decker structure and advanced signalling systems designed to support driverless operations. It is expected to improve connectivity between Chennai’s western suburbs and the city centre while reducing travel time for commuters.

The Prime Minister will inaugurate and lay the foundation stone for National Highway projects worth around Rs 3,700 crore. These include the four-laned Vadugapatti–Therkuvenganallur section of NH-744, the Madurai Ring Road section of NH-744A and a proposed four-lane bypass at Thiruvarur on NH-83.

Railway projects worth over Rs 750 crore will also be dedicated to the nation. These comprise the Karaikal–Peralam railway line, three rail flyovers in and around Coimbatore and five redeveloped Amrit stations at Palani, Vellore Cantonment, Ambasamudram, Paramakkudi and Namakkal.

Port infrastructure will receive a boost through projects at Chennai, V O Chidambaranar and Kamarajar ports to expand cargo-handling capacity and improve logistics. At Chennai Port, the works include a paved storage yard, four export-import godowns, an upgraded cruise terminal and a seafarers’ club.

Modi will also lay the foundation stone for a Rs 1,620 crore Group II/III lube oil base stocks project at Chennai Petroleum Corporation Limited’s Manali refinery, with an annual production capacity of 270,000 tonnes.

At IIT Madras, he will dedicate the Sudha Gopalakrishnan Brain Centre to the nation and launch a global mission to map more than 100 human brains at cellular resolution across the lifespan. He will also release C-STROKE, an atlas containing over 1,000 annotated microscopic sections of a stroke-affected brain.

The Prime Minister will conclude his engagements by attending the golden jubilee celebrations of Jaigopal Garodia Hindu Vidyalaya Matriculation Higher Secondary School in Chennai at around 3 pm and addressing the gathering.

The city is also under tight security as Prime Minister Narendra Modi will attend multiple programmes here on Sunday (October 11).

According to a police official, access to the 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' (Maanavargalin Kural) event is restricted to QR code entry, segregating gender entry corridors and completely excluding the general public from the event to ensure law and order control.

The city is under an exceptionally dense five-tier security blanket comprising 15,000 police personnel led by Chennai police commissioner A Amalraj and the heightened city-wide protocol directly reinforces the security presence surrounding the Island Grounds - the venue of the interaction - and also VVIP transit routes today.

According to TNCC chief Manickam Tagore, about 10,000 to 20,000 students who registered and received the QR code alone will participate in the event.

"Our leader will address issues related to Tamil Nadu students, such as National Eligibility cum Entrance Test, lack of jobs, education for girls and women and the union government's educational policy. It is going to be an interaction session," Tagore said.

Ahead of Gandhi's visit, Tagore confirmed that the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, would meet CM Vijay at his Neelankarai residence for a lunch meeting before attending the students' interaction.

After his arrival, Gandhi is scheduled to travel to a star hotel in Guindy and later proceed for the crucial luncheon meeting with the chief minister at around 1.30 pm. This marks the first official high-level consultation between the two leaders since CM Vijay assumed office in May and also after the Secular Social Justice Victory Alliance was formed.

Following this, Gandhi would travel to the Island Grounds here for the "Maanavargalin Kural" interaction.

Promotional banners, flyers, and digital posters have been widely put up at the Island Grounds and across Chennai by the Tamil Nadu Congress Committee and its student wings, with the posters prominently showcasing the dual bilingual identity of the campaign: "Chhatron Ki Goonj" in Hindi and "Maanavargalin Kural" in Tamil.

They carry distinct, high-energy phrases targeting youth empowerment. The prominent slogans and quotes featured on the campaign material include: "Chennai students, this one's for YOU. You talk. Rahul listens," while another poster states: "Your voice belongs here. Your questions belong here."

One slogan aims at encouraging students to bring their concerns regarding jobs, education, and competitive exams directly to the stage. "Got something to say? Got something to ask? Pull up with your college crew." – A Gen-Z-friendly tagline is put up across college campuses to drive group registrations.

Some larger digital posters and banners utilise direct quotes from Gandhi's previous visits to the state to highlight his connection with the region: "I really love coming to Tamil Nadu" and his supporters saying "We love you, Rahul Gandhi."

The branding features a distinct aesthetic targeting "Gen Z Chennai," depicting energetic student rallies.

The venue carries immense political and educational significance for both the Congress party and the local student demographic. Unlike traditional public political rallies that feature long speeches from leaders on a stage, this event is designed as a two-way, unscripted interaction. The format is intended to give students the floor to directly question the Leader of the Opposition about employment scarcity, educational financial pressures, and career uncertainties.

By choosing Chennai - a major educational hub - the campaign is strategically focused on building a youth-led movement. It aims to channel student voices against systematic issues like nepotism, while politically anchoring the youth demographic ahead of upcoming elections.

According to sources, the intelligence wing and local police patrol squads have intensified vehicle inspections, surveillance operations, and lodge checks across Central Chennai and near transit routes to pre-empt any security lapses.

Following the evening engagement, Gandhi is slated to depart from Island Grounds for Chennai Airport at around 8.30 pm to catch the 9.40 pm return flight to New Delhi.

According to police, the victim was contacted on WhatsApp by persons claiming to be representatives of a UK firm, Steadyedge Capital, promising high returns on investments. Believing them, he paid Rs 1 lakh on February 4, 2025. After which, the fraudsters sent him fake account statements showing his investment growing.

Every time he tried to withdraw the profit, they demanded an advance payment to release the money. Between February 2025 and October 2025, the elderly man made 21 transactions totalling Rs 62.26 lakh to 17 different bank accounts.

After realising he was conned, he filed a complaint on the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal. A case was registered at the Cyber Crime Police Station of Chennai Central Crime Branch (CCB).

Investigation revealed that over Rs 14 lakh had gone to the accounts of Mohammed Tariq Ali (50) and his friend Manish Kumar (45) of Doodh Bowli, Hyderabad. The police investigation revealed that Tariq Ali's account had received Rs 1.48 crore in three months and Manish's Rs 63.72 lakh in three weeks from victims across India.

The police said Tariq Ali converted fraud money into cryptocurrency via Binance and sent it to the scam gang after taking a 20 per cent commission. The probe also found that after his account was frozen, he had opened accounts in his friend's name to continue the fraud. Last week, a special team went to Hyderabad and arrested both men.

But the station’s growing passenger traffic has not been matched by the completion of basic access infrastructure, with the comprehensive redevelopment under the Amrit Bharat Station Scheme still awaiting design approval.

It is an NSG–1 category station in the Southern Railway zone with the daily passenger footfall crossing 1.5 lakh on average and has recorded 3.64 crore originating passengers. Passenger-related earnings have also grown sharply, with the station’s annual earnings jumping from Rs 100 cr in 2021-22 to Rs 184 cr in 2024-25 (February).

However, the infrastructure gap is apparent. In the case of the new Foot Over Bridge that has been built to improve passenger movement, the access infrastructure required to connect it to the surrounding streets has not been completed.

“The station is operating with a single foot overbridge despite the high passenger volume. The new foot overbridge is also of no use without the circulating area. There are no proper entry and exit points, and neither autos nor taxis can reach the location on the east or west side,” said Siva Shankar, a commuter.

A railway official said the design approval for Tambaram’s redevelopment under the Amrit Bharat Station Scheme had not yet been sanctioned and that the process would take some time.

The official noted that lift and escalator works were expected to be completed by the end of 2026.

It is to be noted that the Rail Land Development Authority (RLDA) called tenders in 2020 for preparing a DPR for Tambaram railway station. The tender was initially intended to cover six months, but the redevelopment has remained pending for years.

“Southern Railway is doing piecemeal upgradation, spending little by little. First, they built the FOB and brought in lifts. Now, after we raised the issue of how passengers would access the facility, they have started work on the circulating area and a new road access on the eastern side,” lamented activist Dayanand Krishnan.

Under the agreement, the initiative will provide commercial driving training for two-wheelers and four-wheelers to help women transition into professional transit roles.

Beyond skill acquisition, the programme focuses on creating safe, dignified job opportunities and removing structural barriers women face in the transport and mobility sectors.

Through this partnership, GCC’s Gender and Policy Lab emphasised that empowering women with professional driving skills not only advances individual financial freedom but also strengthens safe transit infrastructure for all women navigating Chennai’s public and commercial transport networks.

GCC Commissioner GS Sameeran, Azad Foundation executives Dolon Ganguly and Malini Krishnan, and head of Gender and Policy Lab, Legis, were present at the event.

Speaking ahead of the novel’s Chennai launch, Meena says her interest in deepfakes grew out of a broader concern with the post-truth world, where propaganda, misinformation and fabricated narratives increasingly shape public perception.

“I think, like a lot of people, I was very interested in what is happening as a consequence of what we call post-truth, in which lies are peddled, narrative propaganda is peddled, and a lot of people start believing things that are not actually happening,” she says.

While discussions around post-truth often centre on politics and misinformation, Meena wanted to examine how women are particularly vulnerable in this environment. Advances in technology have made fabricated sexual content increasingly convincing, easy to circulate and difficult to remove.

“The spread of AI/technology makes them look absolutely real. It's indistinguishable from what is actually real,” she says, adding that the speed at which such content spreads and the difficulty of getting it taken down compound the harm.

For Meena, the violation does not end when a video is exposed as fake. Its circulation can renew the humiliation each time it resurfaces.

“I felt it was something very essential to target because it is a violation on a continuous loop,” she says.

She also sees a close connection between misogyny and political extremism, particularly in the online harassment directed at women who express outspoken political views.

“A majority of the digital harassment online is actually coming from well-organised political quarters,” she says. “For me, political extremism and misogyny are absolutely inextricable.”

Such attacks, she believes, are intended not merely to humiliate women but to discourage them from speaking out. “The aim is to silence these women,” she says.

The culture of online consumption adds another layer to the problem. Meena points to how smartphones and social media have made ordinary people accessible to vast audiences, exposing them to scrutiny once largely associated with celebrities, actors and politicians. Intimate material, whether genuine or fabricated, can then become a spectacle for strangers.

“No one who's watching someone perform intimate acts online, a leaked clip online, or a fake clip online is looking at it with any element of sympathy or feeling that someone's privacy is being invaded,” she says. “The viewer is always a voyeur in these cases.”

What troubles her is the extent to which this behaviour has become normalised. “The people who are consuming this are not considering themselves as perverts. They are taking part in what is a very broad and very normalised ecosystem. That's highly problematic,” she says.

Fieldwork as a Sex Object is the first instalment of what Meena describes as a digital trilogy examining the online public sphere. As relationships, communities and political conversations increasingly move to digital platforms, she believes literature must engage with the changes they bring.

“Our lives, our friend circles, our audience, our political discourse have moved online, and I think it's inevitable that we have to write about it,” she says.

For Meena, however, the online world is not separate from everyday life. It has become another space in which patriarchal control is exercised, from monitoring whose photographs women like to policing what they post on social media.

“The online world has become another battlefield of patriarchal control,” she says.

Addressing digital sexual abuse, including revenge porn and deepfakes, requires more than technological fixes or legal intervention, she argues. It also calls for a wider cultural shift, beginning with how families respond when women become targets of such attacks. “Parents should just tell them, ‘Please, it does not matter. We are with you. We're going to see you through this. Young women are absolutely vulnerable, and I don't think we are doing enough as a society to protect them," she says.

The book launch, organised by Prakriti Foundation, will feature Meena in conversation with Manasi Subramaniam at 7 pm on October 10 at The Lab at Shanta, T Nagar.

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.

As the ends of the poles are sharp, pedestrians using the footpaths could sustain injuries if they trip and fall. Two-wheeler riders travelling close to the roadside could also lose control and meet with accidents if they hit the poles, particularly during peak hours when traffic movement is heavy.

To provide relief from the summer heat, green shades were installed at major road junctions in March and April, particularly to provide shade to pedestrians and motorists waiting at traffic signals. However, some of the shade nets were damaged due to the southwest monsoon and strong winds. Following this, the shade nets were removed from the junctions by the end of June.

A resident of Periamet, Kumar, said that the green shade nets were useful for the public during summer but were removed after the onset of the monsoon. “However, the base portions of the poles have been left behind. During peak hours, vehicles could hit the poles while turning or stopping at the signal. Some of the poles are also difficult to notice at night, increasing the risk of accidents,” he stated.

Concurring with him was a shopkeeper of Elephant gate, Baskar, who added that the remaining portions of these poles should also be removed completely. “The ends are sharp and could injure people walking on the footpath. If someone fails to notice them and trips, they could get hurt. Authorities should take immediate action to remove them,” he said.

A senior Corporation official told DT Next, “The base portions of the green shade net poles will be inspected, and necessary steps will be taken to properly remove the portions that are protruding.”

The initiative aims to ensure seamless connectivity between the 11 Metro stations on the corridor and various parts of the city, enabling commuters to switch easily between Metro trains and buses.

According to the MTC, buses currently operate in both directions through the corridor’s Metro stations, connecting them to different parts of the city. Bus stops are also located near Metro stations to make transfers easier. The number of bus trips serving the 11 stations varies, with Poonamallee Bus Terminus Metro station recording the highest at 5,155 trips, followed by Poonamallee Government Hospital and Karayanchavadi stations with 4,423 trips each.

Kumananchavadi station is served by 3,766 trips, while Porur station has 3,320 trips. Telliyagaram, Porur Bypass, Iyyappanthangal, Poonamallee Bypass and Kattupakkam stations account for 2,711, 2,639, 2,522, 1,793 and 1,737 trips, respectively. Vadapalani station has 1,130 trips.

The MTC said that the locations of bus stops had been marked at each Metro station to help commuters identify them easily. Based on passenger feedback and travel requirements, the MTC and CMRL will jointly assess the feasibility of introducing additional bus services. They will also examine the need to establish dedicated bus stops at individual Metro stations to improve access to feeder services.

The coordinated initiative is aimed at improving connectivity between public transport services and encouraging more people in Chennai to use public transport.

Commissioner A Amalraj chaired a meeting with senior police officers at the Commissionerate in Vepery on Friday to review the security arrangements for the visit.

The security deployment includes additional, joint, deputy and assistant commissioners of police, personnel from law and order, crime and traffic wings, armed reserve police, commandos and the Tamil Nadu Special Police. Elaborate security arrangements have been made at the airport, Porur Bypass Metro railway station, IIT-Madras campus in Kotturpuram, Chennai Trade Centre in Nandambakkam, Guindy Lok Bhavan and surrounding areas. Police have also intensified security along key routes the Prime Minister is expected to take.

Police personnel are conducting intensive checks and surveillance at lodges, guest houses, star hotels and other accommodation facilities to identify suspicious persons. Vehicle checks have also been intensified on major roads across the city. Railway stations, Metro stations and bus terminals are also under heightened security.

The police have declared areas around Meenambakkam, Guindy, Kotturpuram, Porur and Nandambakkam, along with routes to be taken by the VVIP, as red zones today (October 10) ahead of the PM’s visit. Flying drone cameras and other unmanned aerial objects will be prohibited in these areas, except for government arrangements.

A special security coordination meeting was held at the old terminal on Thursday evening under the leadership of ADGP Amit Kumar. Senior airport officials, Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) personnel, VIP security officers, state government protocol officials, senior Chennai police officers and central and state intelligence officials participated in the meeting.

PM Modi will depart New Delhi in a special aircraft on Sunday morning and arrive at Chennai’s old airport at 11.10 am. He will travel by car to Porur to attend the inauguration of the Metro Rail phase 2 project.

From Porur, he’ll proceed by road to IIT Madras in Guindy to participate in government functions. He will then travel to the Chennai Trade Centre in Nandambakkam to attend other scheduled programmes before returning to the old airport. Chief Minister Joseph Vijay is also expected to attend the events.

Enhanced surveillance is also being carried out in areas surrounding the airport. According to airport officials, the security arrangements will remain in force from Friday until Sunday night.

As roadshows are also being considered at certain locations, SPG officials have requested additional security arrangements along the roads.

Drone operations and flying of gas-filled balloons have been prohibited. Permanent staff at courier and cargo companies within the old airport premises have been instructed to wear their photo ID cards visibly while on duty. Temporary workers have also been barred from working in the airport runway maintenance areas during the 3-day security period.

The proposed meeting comes amid discussions over the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam's place in the INDIA alliance.

The meeting, expected to take place over lunch, is likely to draw significant political attention, as there had been reports that the chief minister had been reluctant to meet the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha. This will also likely put an end to speculations surrounding the TVK-Congress alliance.

Addressing reporters here on Friday, Tamil Nadu Congress Committee president Manickam Tagore and AICC general secretary Ghulam Ahmad Mir said arrangements for 'Students' Voice' had been made to ensure the safety and convenience of students attending the programme.

Tagore said the event will provide a platform for students to raise their concerns directly with Rahul.

MIR said between 1 and 1.5 lakh students have already registered to connect with the programme, directly or indirectly. Parents and the general public are barred from the venue, and entry for students is strictly through registered QR codes, with separate entry points arranged for students, political leaders, boys and girls.

The accused were identified as Vignesh Kannan (27) and his younger brother Dinakar (24), residents of the 10th Sector in KK Nagar. They were arrested by a police team led by the inspector of MGR Nagar police station on Thursday, October 8.

According to the police, Aravind (31), a native of Krishnagiri district who works as an omni bus driver, was driving a private bus from Siruseri to Bengaluru on the night of October 6. Daniel was working as the conductor.

A woman who had booked two seats boarded the bus near SRP Tools on OMR. When Daniel asked her whether the other passenger would be joining, she questioned why he was asking. The conductor explained that the office had to be informed.

The woman then allegedly called someone and claimed that the driver and conductor were picking a quarrel with her, asking them to come and question the staff.

When the bus reached the Ambedkar Colony area in KK Nagar, a car allegedly overtook and blocked its path. Two men got out of the car, entered the bus and confronted the conductor over his interaction with the woman. They allegedly assaulted him and also attacked Aravind when he intervened, before fleeing in the car.

Aravind subsequently lodged a complaint with the MGR Nagar police, who registered a case and launched an investigation.

The two accused were arrested on October 8 and produced before a court for further legal proceedings.

The grievance redressal meeting will be presided over by a Superintending Engineer. The board has requested the public to participate in the meeting.

Residents can raise issues related to drinking water supply, sewerage services, water and sewer tax, and pending new water and sewer connections and submit petitions directly to officials.

Information on rainwater harvesting and its maintenance will also be provided during the meeting.

Electricity supply remains suspended for a few hours in affected areas and is restored once the maintenance process is completed. Stay with DT Next for updates on affected localities and timings related to scheduled power shutdowns across Chennai.

The deceased, Haris, of South Street in Pudumadam, Ramanathapuram district, was working at a popular biryani shop in the city. The police said Haris was riding his motorcycle along Velachery Main Road towards Tambaram when a vehicle coming from behind hit his motorcycle. He suffered severe head injuries and died on the spot.

On receiving information, Pallikaranai Traffic Investigation Wing personnel rushed to the scene, recovered the body and sent it to Tambaram GH for a postmortem examination.

The police registered a case and are examining CCTV footage to identify the vehicle involved in the accident and its driver. Further investigation is ongoing.

According to police, unidentified persons used the school owner's photograph as their WhatsApp profile picture and messaged the school's accounts manager, posing as the owner. The message instructed the manager to transfer Rs 38 lakh to a specified bank account.

Believing the message to be genuine, the accounts manager transferred the money from the owner's account to a bank account in Visakhapatnam. The fraud was discovered later, and a complaint was filed through the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal.

The Chennai Central Crime Branch registered a case and traced the funds to a newly opened current account in the name of Sri Sai Ganapathi Logistics in Visakhapatnam. The money was subsequently transferred to other bank accounts.

The account was traced to Pentha Gowri Shankar (45) of Madhurawada in Visakhapatnam. Investigators found that he had allegedly operated the account as a mule account, receiving money obtained through cyber fraud in return for a commission.

The police tracked the transactions through the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal and obtained a court order to recover the funds. Of the Rs 38 lakh transferred, Rs 25.22 lakh has so far been credited back to the victim's account.

A cybercrime police team camped in Visakhapatnam and arrested Shankar and seized mobile phones, SIM cards and a cheque book from him.

The case came to light after a 26-year-old woman from Kolathur, who was looking for a work-from-home job, visited a commercial complex in Royapettah on May 20. She met a woman who introduced herself as an HR representative of a private company and later contacted her about a job opportunity.

The woman was asked to pay Rs 4,500 for software to be installed on her laptop for remote work. She transferred the amount through PhonePe using a QR code provided by the woman. However, she did not receive any further details about the job.

When she visited the company to enquire, its owner, Aaron, told her that he handled recruitment. After repeated attempts to contact him failed, she learnt that others had been cheated similarly and lodged a complaint.

The Anna Salai police registered a case, arrested Aaron (31) of Vilangadupakkam and seized Rs 2.49 lakh in cash and a Samsung mobile phone from him.

After further inquiry, police arrested Gokulnath (26) of Madhavaram and Ajmal Basha (32) of Kodungaiyur on October 7 and seized three mobile phones, including an iPhone.

An initial probe revealed that the three allegedly operated as a group, contacting job seekers by phone and collecting money as advance payments or registration fees. Police are examining their bank accounts, financial transactions, phone numbers, electronic devices and offices to identify more victims and other suspects.

The accused were produced before a court and remanded in judicial custody.

Police advised job seekers to verify employment offers before making payments. Those who fall victim to online job fraud can call 1930 or report the incident through the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal.

According to reports, a team of Special Protection Group (SPG) personnel from Delhi, led by ADGP Amit Kumar, has arrived in Chennai to oversee the Prime Minister’s security arrangements.

A special consultative meeting was held at the old airport terminal on Thursday evening under the leadership of Amit Kumar.

Senior officials from Chennai Airport, the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), Chennai City Police, security agencies responsible for protecting dignitaries, state government protocol departments and central and state intelligence agencies participated in the meeting.

The officials discussed security arrangements for the Prime Minister’s arrival, movements across the city and departure.

Five-hour whirlwind tour

Modi is scheduled to depart from Delhi on a special flight on Sunday morning and arrive at the old Chennai Airport terminal at 11.10 am. Following his arrival, he will travel by car to Porur to attend the inauguration of the Porur Metro Rail project.

From Porur, he will proceed by car to IIT Madras in Guindy to participate in government programmes. He will then travel to the Chennai Trade Centre in Nandambakkam for other scheduled events before returning to the old airport for his departure. The Prime Minister is scheduled to leave for Delhi on a special flight at 4 pm.

Chief Minister Joseph Vijay is also expected to participate in the programmes. Initially, PM Modi was scheduled to travel by helicopter from Chennai Airport to Porur.

However, the plan has been changed, and all his movements during the five-hour visit will take place by road. As roadshows are also being considered at certain locations along the routes, the SPG has sought additional security arrangements.

Restrictions and surveillance at Delhi airport

Security at the old airport has been placed under the control of SPG personnel from Delhi for three days, from Friday until Sunday night.

The flying of drones and inflatable balloons has been prohibited in the vicinity of Chennai Airport.

Permanent employees of courier and cargo companies operating within the old airport complex have been instructed to wear their photo identity cards around their necks while on duty.

Temporary staff have also been barred from reporting for duty at these establishments and in airport runway maintenance areas during the three-day period.

Meanwhile, surveillance has been intensified within the airport premises and surrounding areas. Authorities have ordered intensive checks at nearby hotels and lodges to identify suspicious persons staying there.

Apart from enforcing the standard three-tier security protocol at Chennai Airport, officials have introduced additional checks and surveillance in view of the Prime Minister’s visit.

The enhanced security measures will remain in force until Sunday night, airport officials said.

According to reports, one litre of petrol is being sold at Rs 107.76, while diesel costs Rs 99.55 per litre in Chennai on Friday.

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 footpath in the area has remained damaged at several places, with loose tiles being reported for the past four years. As a result, pedestrians are forced to walk with extra care and fear.

Meanwhile, renovation work is under way at the Tiruvanmiyur terminus, due to which buses are being parked along the roadside. This has left some portions near the footpath relatively concealed, where some people urinate, resulting in an unpleasant odour.

A shopkeeper in the area, Ramalingam, said, “When it rains, tiles and surface of the footpath become loose and sometimes, slippery. This is riskier especially at night, as the damaged portions are not clearly visible.”

Concurring with him was a resident, Shathik, who added: “Since this is a bus stop, a large number of people use this stretch every day. Because it is uneven, people are forced to walk on the road, which is packed with fast-moving vehicles all the time. Necessary steps should be taken to ensure the safety of pedestrians.”

Speaking to DT Next, a Highway department official said, “A proposal for repairing the footpath has already been submitted. Work will begin once approval is received. We’ll also examine the measures that can be taken to temporarily repair the footpath.”

One of the main reasons for the damage is that footpaths were dug up to lay electricity and telecommunication cables and not properly restored afterwards. “Generally, permission is not sought before digging up the footpaths. Some private companies are laying cables without permission, resulting in damage to the footpaths,” the official added.

The arrested constable was identified as Velmurugan. His accomplices were identified as Muthupandi (25) of Thoraipakkam and Zakir Hussain (20) of Neelankarai.

Velmurugan had previously served at the Thoraipakkam police station and was transferred to the Adyar police station a few months ago.

Officials said he had used his knowledge of the station and the vehicles kept there to facilitate the thefts.

According to the investigation, the trio arrived in a load vehicle on Wednesday night and attempted to take away two-wheelers that had been seized by the police. But the officials at the Thoraipakkam police caught them during the attempt and arrested all three.

During the subsequent investigation, the police found that Velmurugan and the same two accomplices were involved in the theft of six two-wheelers in August, when he was posted at the Thoraipakkam police station.

At the heart of the row is the OSR land on 15th Cross Street. According to some of the residents, two functionaries belonging to the ruling TVK set up a shed on the land.

“Some days ago, the land opposite my tenement was encroached upon by Maha and Deva, both local TVK functionaries, who started constructing a paint and tinkering shed. When we opposed this, both claimed they had obtained permission from the Sholinganallur MLA,” alleged S Somu, a resident of 15th Cross Street.

Despite submitting complaints through the Greater Chennai Corporation’s (GCC) public grievance redressal portal, the officials did not take any action, which only strengthened their suspicion about collusion between civic officials and political functionaries in the area.

“Our ward (196) does not have a play area for children, forcing families to travel to other neighbourhoods to use park facilities. We want the corporation to remove these encroachments and set up a children’s play area on the OSR land,” added Somu.

Speaking to DT Next, councillor Ashwini Karuna alleged that an activist and TVK functionary have been occupying open spaces alongside the footpath with the support of Sholinganallur MLA. “After occupying these public spaces, they are renting and leasing them out. Multiple letters have been sent to the corporation zonal officer demanding the removal of these encroachments,” he added.

When contacted, Sholinganallur MLA ‘ECR’ P Saravanan of the TVK denied the allegation that these shops on encroached lands were set up by his party functionaries. “If anyone is using the party’s name for personal benefit, strict action will be taken against them,” he said.

Such encroachments have become a sore point in the area, said several residents, who pointed out that unlike other parts of the city where street vendors, pushcarts, and mobile food stalls occupy side-walks, permanent commercial structures were blocking pavements along the major roads in Kannagi Nagar.

A resident fumed that more than 80 shops have encroached on important roads like Kannagi Nagar 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Main Roads, as well as Ezhil Nagar Main Road. “Each shop occupies nearly 200 square feet of public space, and all of them discharge wastewater directly into the storm water drains. Which GCC official permitted them to set up these shops? The civic body had allotted a designated vending zone a year ago, but that has since disappeared,” the resident pointed out.

Responding to the allegations, GCC Joint Commissioner (Works) S Saravanan said, “I’ll instruct Regional Deputy Commissioner (South) Aftab Rasool to inspect the area and take the necessary action.”

The police registered a case based on a complaint from T Ramkumar (45), a director of the firm that is reportedly linked to a minister in the State Cabinet. In 2024, the company decided to buy a Toyota Land Cruiser 300 ZX for official use and approached the arrested accused, Anup Sumith Fernandez from Karnataka.

Anup promised to get the imported car through a private company in Hyderabad and assured that the vehicle would be delivered within 40 days after full payment. Believing him, Ramkumar transferred a total of Rs 2.6 crore in two instalments.

However, Anup neither delivered the car as promised nor returned the money.

Based on a complaint filed by Ramkumar seeking action against Anup and recovery of the money that he had paid, a case was registered. As Anup was abroad at the time of booking the case, a Look-Out Circular (LOC) was issued against him.

Anup promised to get the imported car through a private company in Hyderabad and assured that the vehicle would be delivered within 40 days after full payment

On October 5, when Anup arrived at Mumbai airport from Qatar, the authorities at Mumbai airport detained him and handed him over to the local police station. He was brought to Chennai, produced before a magistrate, and remanded in judicial custody.

Deepa Dodla of Dodla Dairy, popularly known as ‘Madam Mahjong’, was the chief guest. Shweta C, founder of trans-led organisation Born2Win Foundation, and Dr Sumithra Prasad, founder-general secretary of DORAI Foundation, which works with persons with special needs, were among those present.

The Mahjong tournament served as a hook for the initiative, with Apsara explaining that the game was chosen to bring people together for a cause. “Mahjong is about mental strength and strategy,” she said, adding that the tournament was organised alongside an effort to support children in education and create opportunities for the transgender community.

Apsara said the foundation wanted to move beyond merely offering gifts and instead focus on education, skills and long-term opportunities. Highlighting the needs of children with autism and Down Syndrome, Apsara noted that the initiative would help expand educational facilities, introduce technology and provide vocational training.

“A child’s future should never be limited by how they learn, nor a transgender person’s future by who they are,” Apsara said, stressing that scholarships, welcoming classrooms and proper support pave the way for employment and dignity.

As part of the drive, the Apsara Foundation announced a contribution of Rs 50,000 towards education for transgender students through Born2Win, with the support intended to help meet their need for laptops.

For Deepa Dodla, the significance of Mahjong went beyond the game itself. She noted that Mahjong offers a structured space to connect in an increasingly isolated world. “Despite being constantly connected on social media, people are increasingly lonely. Mahjong creates a social structure that brings people together,” she said.

She also highlighted the sense of community created around the Mahjong table. “Mahjong has brought humanity back to kindness, and it’s brought us back to humanity again,” she said.

The initiative also underscored the importance of creating inclusive spaces where children with special needs can learn skills and work towards greater independence. Apsara said the Good Deeds Club, which works on child rights and several community initiatives, has previously supported orphanages, reunited runaway children with their families and helped children of commercial sex workers return to school.

“This Deepavali, let us take the light beyond this room, fund an education, offer mentorship and open doors,” Apsara said, calling for a more inclusive society where every person gets an opportunity to learn, grow and belong.

The programme was organised by the Railway Protection Force (RPF), Railway Police, and railway officials to prevent passengers from dangerously crossing the tracks at the Chromepet station.

During the programme, passengers were cautioned through loudspeakers about the dangers of crossing the tracks, and were advised to use the foot overbridge or subway instead of crossing the tracks and warned that violators could face fines and legal action.

Pamphlets warning against trespassing were also distributed, and awareness banners were displayed.

Even as the event was going on, several passengers, most of them women, crossed the tracks. Seeing this, RPF personnel, railway staff and women ticket examiners stopped them and warned them against crossing the tracks.

This led to heated arguments, with passengers questioning why there was no subway at Chromepet unlike stations such as Meenambakkam and St Thomas Mount where commuters are able to exit the station safely.

They also demanded that the subway constructed by the Highways Department on Radha Nagar Main Road be connected to Chromepet station, with proper stairways provided to enable passengers to access the station safely.

Another major grievance was the frequent non-functioning of escalators and lifts at the station.

Passengers complained that they are forced to climb around 30 steps up and another 30 steps down using the foot overbridge when the escalators and lifts are not operational.

"We know that crossing the tracks is dangerous, but when there is no convenient alternative, we are forced to take the risk," many commuters told the officials.

Officials, however, said while they understood the difficulties faced by passengers, crossing railway tracks could even result in loss of life. They said the awareness campaign was being conducted to prevent accidents and ensure passenger safety.

Railway officials said several petitions regarding the problems faced by commuters at Chromepet station had already been received.

They said that the ongoing development works are expected to be completed by April 2027.

They added that additional escalators and lifts are planned, while steps are also being taken by the Railways and Highways Department to connect the Radha Nagar subway with the railway station and provide proper access for passengers.

The park, maintained by the Greater Chennai Corporation, is the only designated children’s play space for residents across more than 15 streets in the locality. But safety concerns over an electricity transformer located within the premises have kept children away, while poor maintenance has left the park largely dormant.

Residents said they had raised concerns about the location even before the park was inaugurated several years ago.

“They should have constructed the park elsewhere,” said Thilagabama, a long-time resident, adding that residents had pointed out the transformer when the park was being planned. “We used to take our kids to play, but it felt unsafe,” she said.

The park, maintained by GCC, is the only designated children’s play space for residents across more than 15 streets, but poor maintenance has left the park largely dormant

Over time, fewer families began using the park and the space was eventually left unattended. The result is visible in the overgrown vegetation, fallen leaves and unused play equipment scattered across the premises.

Meanwhile, the inauguration of the CMDA sports complex in the vicinity has brought more residents to the area. Rather than replacing the need for the small children’s park, the increased use of the sports complex has highlighted the lack of a dedicated space for younger children.

“After the inauguration of the sports complex, many people started coming to play badminton and use the gym. Many times, there is no space for children,” said Koushik, a father of a seven-year-old boy.

Parents said the children’s play area at the sports complex can get crowded quickly, making the unused Corporation park all the more relevant to families in the neighbourhood.

“With proper safeguards and maintenance, the park can be a good play area for residents of Agathiyar Nagar and Ponvizha Nagar,” Koushik said.

Ward councillor Sudha Deenadhayalan acknowledged the presence of the transformer as one of the reasons for the park being closed. She said she would speak to Corporation engineers about the issue and explore measures to make the space safe for children.

Jawaharlal Nehru Salai, more commonly known as 100 Feet Road, is one of the arterial roads in Chennai. However, though it witnesses heavy traffic movement throughout the day, especially near the CMBT in Koyambedu, there is not even a traffic signal at the spot.

This leaves the pedestrians in considerable inconvenience, and even danger, while trying to cross the wide road.

On the other hand, pedestrians crossing the road often disrupt the flow of traffic during peak hours, causing congestion on the Koyambedu flyover and the road underneath, which connects to the Koyambedu bus terminus.

After persistent complaints from the public, the Highways Department had in 2025 proposed an FOB at the crossing between the Koyambedu grade separator and the CMBT flyover at an estimated cost of Rs 18 crore.

However, even after nearly a year, the project has not progressed beyond the announcement.

The location is particularly dangerous for those on foot as vehicles move at high speeds while coming down the flyover. During peak hours, traffic police personnel are deployed at the location to regulate vehicle movement and help pedestrians cross the road.

However, for most part of the day, they are forced to cross the busy stretch at their own risk.

One of the main challenges in constructing the FOB was land acquisition, said an official.

A senior official from the State Highways Department told DT Next, “The land acquisition process has been completed and the tender process also completed. Within one or two days, the construction of that project will start.”

The board, popularly called Metro Water, has begun precautionary work ahead of the monsoon, and has desilted roughly 6,000 km of active sewer lines twice already. Speaking to DT Next, a senior official said the workers have completed desilting sewer lines, covering about 1,70,000 manholes. Now the third phase of work is under way and will continue through the monsoon.

Of the pumping stations in the city, 423 are IoT-based and automated, which will switch on when the water reaches a set level, even without workers present, and switch off once levels fall.

The real challenge, however, lies elsewhere. According to the official, though the slum dwellers in the city are often blamed for misusing sewers resulting in blockages, the issue is not limited only to those areas alone. Clothes, napkins and diapers are dumped even from high-rise apartments and housing board flats, leading to blockages and resulting in sewer overflow, the official said.

To prevent waterborne diseases, the board will double sample testing to 1,800 during rains and to 600 during normal days. More samples will be collected from Tamil Nadu Urban Habitat Development Board complexes, said officials.

Officials said the city's infrastructure managed by GCC can handle up to 20 cm of rainfall a day. However, the actual intensity of the monsoon is unpredictable as witnessed during the 2021 and 2023 floods. Learning from that experience, the board has raised the height of 20 pumping stations in low-lying areas and placed generators there.

On the equipment front, generators are on standby, diesel for one to two months has been procured, and sandbags have been kept ready. A total of 740 machines, including high-speed sewage suction vehicles, are ready. Metro Water owns 600 of them, while 173 will be outsourced under the Annal Ambedkar Business Champion Scheme. Around 130 suction lorries will be brought from other districts and shared with the Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC).

The rainwater harvesting structures at about 10 lakh of the city's 12 lakh buildings are in working condition, while the remaining 2 lakh need maintenance. Among the buildings, around 90 per cent of structures in large houses, high-rises, hospitals and IT companies are functional, but small houses leave much to be desired, added the official.

The exercise is expected to give them a granular picture of travel demand around each station and help it plan first- and last-mile feeder services.

CUMTA has invited bids for a two-month consultancy to prepare big data-based origin-destination (OD) matrices for the catchment areas of the 41 stations. The study will define a 5 km road-distance influence area around each station and divide it into traffic analysis zones (TAZs) of approximately 0.5 sq km each.

“It is an effort to identify not only how existing Metro passengers travel but also wider movement that the Metro network is currently not capturing,” CUMTA special officer I Jeyakumar said, adding that, “A person travelling between the two locations may not necessarily use the Metro even though the network serves both ends. Understanding such movements would require anonymised mobility data beyond Metro ticketing records.”

The consultant will have to procure anonymised GPS traces from smartphone applications or mobile-network data covering at least three months, with representative coverage of around 1015% of the target population.

According to CUMTA, the data supplied to the authority would contain aggregated travel movements rather than individual movement histories. Machine learning-based trip-chaining algorithms will then be used to convert location pings into trips and dwell periods and classify them by origin, destination, peak or offpeak period and trip length.

The consultant will prepare separate OD matrices for average daily travel, a three-hour morning peak, a three-hour evening peak and a six-hour off-peak period.

The tender requires the consultant to produce a web-based visualisation platform showing the study area, TAZs and OD movements through heatmaps and desire-line diagrams.

With regard to privacy concerns, CUMTA said individual-level data will not be supplied and that the information it receives will be anonymised/aggregated. “The data will be under our control,” he said. The consultant will also have to hand over the raw and final datasets, maps, GIS shapefiles and working files to CUMTA.

After issuing the direction, Justice PT Asha adjourned the case to October 13.

The Chennai Fire Works Dealers’ Welfare Association has approached the court seeking space at Island Grounds to sell firecrackers during the Deepavali festival every year.

The association said it had been participating in the tender process and conducting the cracker fair since 2014. In 2025, the High Court had directed the respondents to allot space to the association for selling firecrackers. But the currently allotted to it had been reduced due to upcoming construction works and the shifting of the MTC bus stand to Island Grounds, resulting in fewer shops getting space.

It submitted representations dated July 14 and July 20 to the department secretary seeking earmarked space, but no action had been taken so far, said the association, seeking a direction to TTDC to consider its representations and provide space every year during the festival, based on the court order.

During the hearing, its counsel submitted that the association had to approach the court every year seeking space to sell firecrackers. The government advocate submitted that a tender would soon be floated for allotting shops for firecracker sales this year.

This is the idea at the heart of ‘Shaktis of India’, a Lil Navaratri presentation by Lil Trails in collaboration with Aalap. The 90-minute performance brings together storyteller Janaki Sabesh, singer Madhuvanthi Badri and young storyteller Dira Paavai Rajavel, weaving stories of these women with the spirit of Devi and the many qualities associated with Shakti.

For Akhila Krishnamurthy of Aalap, the idea was to create a Navaratri experience that children could absorb in an accessible and engaging way.

Aalap, she says, uses “the power of the performing arts, storytelling, dance, music” to make classical arts “accessible, impactful and meaningful” even to audiences unfamiliar with them. The partnership with Lil Trails also offers an opportunity to introduce children to the arts at an early age.

The starting point for this edition was to move beyond conventional mythological narratives. “The idea is to celebrate Shakti and Shaktis that really make our lives better and who inspire us to continue to pursue and become better versions of ourselves,” Akhila says, pointing to everyday women, including those who cook meals or keep homes, as “goddesses in their own right.”

Janaki Sabesh sees this as a way of making the stories more human. “We’ve heard stories of the Devi again and again, but what if we looked at them through the lives of real women, women who lived before us and women among us today?” she asks. “Perhaps Devi is not just someone we worship, but a Shakti that lives in every woman.”

Rather than prescribing lessons, Janaki wants children to discover their own meanings. “I don't believe in telling children what they should learn from a story,” she says. “Let them laugh, wonder, feel and ask questions, and the values will find their own way in. For me, the story must come first; the learning can quietly follow.”

Her research brought unexpected discoveries. “We may know the name, but do we know the person?” she asks, recalling how she was struck by the ordinary beginnings behind some extraordinary journeys and the determination of these women to pursue their goals.

Sharing the stage with Janaki is young storyteller Dira Paavai Rajavel, whose presence brings another dimension to the performance. Janaki describes her as approaching the stories “with so much wonder and curiosity,” adding that seeing a child discover these stories alongside the audience can make the experience particularly relatable for young viewers.

Music, meanwhile, is not treated as a separate concert but as part of the narrative. Singer Madhuvanthi Badri says this is rooted in India’s storytelling traditions. “Music has always been an indispensable part of storytelling and they have been intertwined since days of yore in every part of our country,” she says, citing Harikatha, Bhagavatha Mela, Yakshaganam and Villupattu. “Children are naturally attracted to music and giving them apt music for the situation helps them imbibe the narrative in a way they’ll never forget.”

She also believes the classical and devotional traditions bring an emotional depth that words alone cannot. “Our literature is vast!” she says, adding, “The magnitude of the emotional and spiritual dimension of these can only be experienced. We all try our best as artists to pass on this experience to my audience.”

The collaboration, she says, comes naturally. “Iyal, Isai and Natakam are always a team. They always travel together and can co-exist beautifully. With Janaki and Dira, things just flow naturally amongst us. Music effortlessly fits in like a glove.”

Her understanding of Shakti is personal too. “Shakti is not just an external cosmic force, but the very essence residing within every human being,” she says. “Every time you exhibit resilience (Durga), creativity (Saraswati), abundance/generosity (Lakshmi), or the courage to let go of what limits you (Kali), you are actively embodying Shakti.”

For Lil Trails’ Avanti Natarajan, the performance is also about what happens after the curtain falls. “Creating a shared experience that opens up more conversations and keeps stories travelling within families” is central to the idea, she says.

And perhaps that is the larger invitation of Shaktis of India: not simply to remember the women whose stories are told, but to recognise the qualities they represent closer to home and within ourselves.

For Janaki, the quality she most hopes children carry away is “curiosity, the desire to ask questions, to explore, and perhaps even discover a little bit of their own Shakti along the way.” Shaktis of India will be presented on October 10 at 10 am at Medai, The Stage, Alwarpet, as part of Lil Navaratri 2026.
