No water in tanks
Thousands of devotees will take part in ‘poochorithal’ festival at the Mariamman Temple in Samayapuram on Sundays during the Tamil month of Panguni. Many alight at the bus stops on either side of the Tiruchi-Chennai highway to proceed to the temple. At both bus stops, drinking water tanks were installed for the devotees. But both the tanks are not functional for reasons best known to the authorities. There is no water supply to the tanks. I request the authorities to ensure that the tanks are filled with drinking water.
