Many locals claim the Marina to be one the world's longest, but have we kept the beach and the shore line beautiful?This picture was taken on June 9. 2007 at 6.15 am. I wasn’t prepared for this and I had to use my mobile to Xpose the city.
Look at all those guys squatting on the shoreline. What a shame! What an eyesore!
We immediately need a campaign to save the shore. Hope Culture vultures and Environmentalist will do something to stop the coast line defecation.
lack of toilets and education may be the reasons. Having said that, I have seen NRIs coming to Madras and behaving like the locals (men looking for the nearest wall to pee in public). Do as Madrasis do...what the heck, I have done it too on a long distance pallavan transport ride to Madurai..nothing like free air and do as you please behavior..lol
