Subject: Petition to improve sanitation conditions at the beaches of Besant
Nagar, Valmiki Nagar and Kottivakkam
To whomsoever it may concern:
We, the citizens of Chennai, have noted with great concern the lack of basic sanitation facilities at the Besant Nagar, Valmiki Nagar and Kottivakkam beaches. This is worrying not only for aesthetic reasons but also for the implications it has on public health and the environment. If the city is to claim these spaces to be its pride and joy, it must also reclaim them from such appalling conditions.
We demand that the Corporation take up its duty of maintaining the sanitation levels in the city by providing toilets and garbage bins at various points on these beaches. Non-availability of toilets and garbage-bins forces people to dirty the beaches.
We urge the Corporation to look into these matters without further delay. We would also like to recommend that the Corporation work in harmony and consultation with the affected parties which would include the vendors, beach visitors and the shops that line the beaches.
Please do treat this matter with utmost urgency.
We, the initiators of the petition, are members of Reclaim Our Beaches (ROB), a youth-based organization encouraging people to participate in making Chennais beaches clean and inclusive.
ROB would be willing to assist the Corporation in the ideation and execution of this.
