DEFACED WALLS OF CHENNAI

The strange thing in this city is that the its walls are continuously defaced with names of partymen all over. Not a wall is left in the city without the name of some party man's name painted across really big. Each party here is vying for space. There seem to be a mad scamble for the space here with the alphabetic letters getting bigger and bigger. What purpose this gives is anybody's guess. Except that it is 'painting' a wrong image of a cultured city.

Some years back the previous Government had banned this. How the walls of the city looked clean!. Presently the hoardings on the roads had been banned presumably to avoid traffic accidents. How come then such graffiti on the walls are being allowed?. Strange are the ways of the Government.

To keep the city clean is an awareness that must be inculcated in Public mind and examples are to the shown by the Government. If the Government itself commits the sin then what to say of the public. It will only breed uncultured behaviour among the people of the city.
