Chennai is never known for its "infrastructure" if you could call it. This is can applied to all areas. Best example is our road construction. What should have started as a quick fix is now a norm. Roads are built on top of existing battered roads not only making it vulnurable, but in the process submurging buildings on the frindges. I learnt from friends in other countries that when roads need to be rebuilt, they are done by digging up existing ones and relaying the whole structure again. But the best I have seen happen in chennai is just a layer of tar applied on the existing roads. So what starts off as an initiative to aid infrastructure becomes trouble.

I live on the fourth floor of an apartment, and I just hope it does not become a basement someday.
