Residents along the east coast in Chennai are up in arms against the construction of concrete storm water drains by the Greater Chennai Corporation to prevent inundation. These areas closer to the sea shore, they say, are not prone to flooding and the ongoing ₹ 350 crore German bank-funded project only destroys the sandy aquifer and would ultimately pollute the sea, where the water would be discharged into.
