Abandoned timekeeper booth in 11th Avenue used as urinalSir, The timekeeper booth installed by

Tamilnadu State Transport Corporation(TNSTC) in 11th Avenue, near KFC, AshokNagar has remained unused since 2010.

During festivals like Deepavali, a mobiletimekeeper booth is used to regulate thebuses that ply to Pondicherry from thisspot.

As the booth is lying unused, passersbyhave converted it into a urinal.

The unsanitary condition of the boothhas become a health hazard to nearbyresidents.

The stinking and unused booth is also aneyesore,

Advertisement banners and unsavorycinema posters are stuck on the booth.

On my representation, the power sup-ply to the booth was disconnected byTNEB.

But, my efforts to contact the TNSTC toremove the booth have been in vain. S.Kalyanaraman, 11th Avenue, AshokNagar, Ph: 98400 22218

CMDA should seek public opinion for re-classification of landSir, The Chennai Metropolitan Development Corporation Authority (CMDA) from time to

time issues re-classification notification for lands based on the application made by owners toconvert from residential to commercial, institutional to commercial, agriculture to commercialand so on.

In T. Nagar, the re-classification of land use has become such a quiet affair that no one knowshow the residential area turns into commercial overnight.

The re-classification is supposed to be done after due verification of the land and the documents,suitability of the site, accessibility, compatibility with the adjoining developments, impact on theenvironment and more. However, the residents living in the vicinity of the property and thepublic in general remain unaware of the re-classification until some construction activity is startedin the plot. Re-classification of land as commercial in any area, more particularly in a residentialarea will have a significant impact on the environmental and the civic resources and infrastructure.

If the CMDA’s re-classification has not evoked any public opinion thus far, it is mainly becauseof poor dissemination of information. Residents will definitely react if they come to know of achange in the land use that could impact their living. So, in order to ensure total transparency,the CMDA, besides inserting advertisements in dailies, must also install a notification board onthe plot to seek the views of the nearby residents.

Further, per se, the re-classification from one zone to another, more particularly residentialto any other zone, should not be entertained in view of the huge impact on the environment andnon-availability of infrastructure. V. S. Jayaraman, 31, Motilal Street, T. Nagar

Beware of tricksters using emotional tacticsSir, During a recent errand to buy vegetables with my wife, a person whom I could not recall

meeting before, accosted me and said he used to be my colleague at work.He introduced himself as Rajendran, and asked me to recall names of co-employees. When I

mentioned a few names, he said he was a relative of one of them. He then started pleading thathe and his family were stranded in Chennai and begged for some money which he promised to return after reaching hishome town. My wife immediately cautioned me against giving any money and advised me to move on. The strangerparted once he realised that the game was up. On reaching home, when I contacted my colleague, he said he did not haveany relative by the name Rajendran. I am writing this letter just to caution the public of tactics employed by strangersto cheat people, especially senior citizens who are vulnerable targets. V. S. Jayaraman, T. Nagar

Property tax burdenSir, There has been a hue and cry over the erratic revision of property tax. When people are suffering from price rise,

inflation and unemployment problems, the sudden and abrupt increase of property tax by 100% to 200% will furtherincrease their hardship.

Earlier assurances of maximum 50% revision by the State Govt. have been flouted.

Appeal to remove urinals in Pinjala Subramanian StreetSir, The unsanitary condition of the open urinals in Pinjala Subramanian

Street, T. Nagar is a health hazard. The urinals are not maintainedproperly and produce an offensive smell throughout the day.

The urinals are predominantly used by train commuters and personsworking in nearby shops and street vendors.

The residents of the street and the devotees who regularly visit theSaibaba Temple on the street are the most affected.

I appeal to Chennai Corporation to remove the open urinals from theroad. V. S. Narayanaswamy, Motilal Street, T. Nagar

I appeal to the Govt. not to punish the owners with such high rates inrevision of property tax and to keep them under 50%.N. Rajaggopalan, West Mambalam

Anna Varsity introduces exam,revaluation reformsBy Our Staff Reporter

In the aftermath of the revaluation scam, Anna University hasintroduced a slew of examination reforms, including distribution ofanswer keys, striking out of blank pages and cross-checking 30% ofevaluated answer scripts, the university told the Madras High Courtrecently.

G. V. Uma, former Controller of Examinations, and other facultymembers were suspended for their alleged role in the said scam.Besides an ongoing Directorate of Anti-Corruption and Vigilance(DVAC) probe, an internal committee formed to probe the scam foundthat answer scripts of students were manipulated in evaluationcenters. Answer scripts provided to students contain 44 pages.Students involved in the scam left the last few pages of the scriptsblank and scamsters filled these pages with relevant answers duringevaluation. According to the new assessment schedule introduced bythe university, students must strike out all unwritten pages of theanswer scripts and exam hall supervisors have been told not to acceptanswer scripts with blank pages.

Also, a proposal has been made to remove the front page of answerscripts which contains the student’s registration number beforehanding them over to the evaluating faculty.

In its affidavit submitted to the court, Anna University saidanswer keys for all the subject question papers were provided tofaculty so that the number of students applying for revaluationcomes down. Besides this, the chairman of the evaluation centershould cross-check at least 30% of answer scripts evaluated byexaminers and the number of examiners under a chairman has beenreduced from 17 to 10 now, the university submitted.

Further, answer scripts with a difference in the original and re-evaluated score of more than 15 will be scrutinized, the affidavit said.

A 40-day deadline has been set for the Controller of Examinationsto finish the re-evaluation process and release the results via websiteand text messages.
