Real Estate buried for Good in Chennai
With Rain and Floods inundating every corner of the new Chennai, residents are leaving places like Velachery, Mudichur and Urappakkam for good
The talk of demolishing of illegal constructions in Velachery and Mannivakkam have added to the exodus

A day's rain has haunted Chennai for more than a week
Localities turned into lakes, roads turned into canals
Who should be held responsible for this

Best Book on Sabari Yatra - Pilgrimage to Sabari - K. R. Vaidyanathan
The book is good for all devotees and pilgrims of Lord Ayyappa. It makes the reader feel as if himself is on a visit to Mount Sabari. The book has answered all questions that rise in the minds of readers-whether they are new ones, skeptics, laymen or devotees. The legend of the origin of the holy pilgrimage, the adventurous trek, the significance of the journey are informative
More info http://bit.ly/1nKUDhy
More details: ‘Swamiye, saranam Ayyappa’ shout thousands of devotees who make this pilgrimage to Sabari after 41 days of penance and austerity. They carry a two compartment bag called Irumudi as they climb the Sabarimala hills. And only then can they ascend the 18 steps to the sanctum. No women between puberty and menopause are allowed. The book tells all the tales associated with Lord Ayyappa and the pilgrimage to Sabarimala. How Ayyappa was born from the union of Vishnu(as Mohini) and Shiva, why all Hindu pilgrimages lead one to beautiful surroundings generally on top of hills like Sabari, Badrinath, Kedarnath, Tirupati etc. is told in this book. The flow of devotees has increased almost ten fold in the last decade and this has made the author add one more chapter to the book about the latest information, the facilities offered and the changes that have taken place in recent times. Today the pilgrims come from outside India as well and there is no discrimination between communities or castes.

How to go to Meenakshi Ammal Trust (Meenakshi College of Engineering, K K Nagar)
Buses / Route / Landmark for Meenakshi Ammal Trust (Meenakshi College of Engineering, K K Nagar)
If you have landed in this blog, it means you are trying to put your daughter/son/sister in an Engineering College in Chennai
The Trust office is located in Ramasamy Salai, K.K.Nagar, The route would be as follows (from Kasi theatre)
Meenakshi Ammal Trust,
New No.61,
Ramasamy Salai, K.K.Nagar,
Chennai-600 078
Tamil Nadu, INDIA
Phone No : 044 - 23662399
Fax No : 044-2481272
The rates are not negotiable here. .compared to other colleges the tution fees are moderate.
When we went, we were asked to remove footwear (secret microphone fear) and were asked to wait in a big hall (of an erstwhile bungalow). The hall was airy and we were about to doze; one gentleman with Sandal pottu called us in. Before entering we were asked to handover the cell phones etc. The admission officer's assistant (my friend named him Alla kai) was wary of these gadgets as the might be leaked to media.
At the end we got the numbers. Since the trust (and other colleges) took so much for not leaking .. I am not revealing the figures.
We then went to Arulmigu Venkata Subramanya Swamy Tirukovil / Temple - Valasarawakkam Chennai and prayed for all students and proceeded towards Koyambedu Perumal Temple - Koyambedu Sita Rama Temple before heading to RMK Engg College
PSBB (Padma Seshadri Bala Bhavan Senior Secondary School ) Bus Stop on Ramaswamy Salai is a nearest bus stop
