According to the police, when Arockiadas on April 26 went to his client Selvam’s shop on South Boag Road (T. Nagar) to collect his dues, he was made to wait for a long time. This led to an altercation between the two which culminated in Selvam and his aide Vijayakumar clubbing Arockiadas with an iron rod.

Two pose as cops, steal 1 kg gold from jewellers Two men, who posed as sleuths from Narcotics Wing of Delhi police, conned two jewellers and stole 1 kg gold jewellery on Usman Road (T. Nagar) on April 29. They confronted two jewelers from Kerala near a jewellery showroom, took their bags from them in the guise of checks and subtly replaced the gold it contained with sand and stones and returned the bags. According to the police, the men convinced the jewellers that they belonged to Delhi police and had information that narcotics is being smuggled in the area and wanted to check the contents of the bags. The jewellers said that they found no reason to suspect them as they were also checking bags of other passersby. When the duo found that the bag contained gold, they demanded the jewellers to show documents. While one man kept questioning them to distract their attention, the other moved with the bag a little farther on the pretext of checking its content. After a few minutes, the men handed over the bags asking them to take the jewellery safely and left. The jewellers realized that they had been conned only when they reached the jewellery showroom and opened their bags. They filed a complaint at Mambalam Police Station. The jewellers used to regularly bring jewellery from Kerala and supplied to different showrooms in Chennai. The police suspect involvement of gangs from North India. The victims told the police that the conmen conversed with one another in Hindi. Police have collected the CCTV footage from shops located near the spot where the incident took place. An official said that the duo could have targeted the jewellers after keeping a close watch on their movements. “It is possible that they brought a similar bag containing stones and might have switched the bags because the jewellers did not see the men taking out the gold. 25 laptops stolen from service centre in MGR Nagar By Our Staff Reporter Unidentified men broke into a laptop service centre on Anna Road, near Ajanta bus stop, MGR Nagar on April 29 and stole 25 laptops.

SUMMER CAMP LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Section 113C of Town Planning Act should be scrapped Sir, Tamilandu Government has constituted a special committee under the chairmanship of a retired High Court judge to frame appropriate guidelines and rules for effective implementation of Section 113C of the Tamilnadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971, which provides for exemption of any building or class of buildings developed on or before 1.7.2007 from all or any of the provisions of the said Act, or any rule or regulations by collecting such amounts as prescribed by the Government. It is in this context, CMDA has sought the views of the owners of buildings in George Town area on the guidelines for regularization of the unauthorized buildings constructed before 1.7.2007. Very soon, we can presume that CMDA will come out with a similar notification seeking suggestions from the owners of the commercial buildings in T. Nagar, as hereto, many have constructed complexes deviating from the approved plans. In the first place, Section 113C deserves to be scrapped as it makes mockery of the very rules and regulations framed by the CMDA for the construction of buildings and same was recommended by the Supreme Court when it permitted the regularization scheme only as a ‘one-time measure’ in 1998. The violations are the direct result of the poor enforcement of the rules by the officials and it is now trying to sanctify the same. When the construction of a building is deemed as unauthorized, what is the point in looking at the type and nature of violations in such a structure? What is the logic behind seeking suggestions from the building owners who are already at fault? What about the views of the public who are prone to danger due to either their living closer to the violated structures or who pass by or visit these buildings to shop/transact business? The recommendations of the special committee will have to be much more stringent as Chennai now falls under Earthquake Seismic Zone III. Levying penalty alone will not be the solution. Punishment like denial of power/water/ sewage connections to the buildings with violations and deviations should be given.— B. Kannan, Secretary, T. Nagar Residents’ Welfare Association, 30, Rangan Street, T. Nagar PAN card copy should be mandatory for cash deposits over Rs. 50,000 Sir, The report ‘Avoid revealing PAN number unless mandatory’ published under the ‘Letters to the Editor’ column last week was indeed an eye opener. The public should make note of it. Either the Railways should not disclose PAN numbers on reservation charts or PAN card should be deleted from the list of ID proof. To further avoid misuse of PAN details, banks should make it compulsory to attach a photo copy of the PAN card for cash deposits over Rs. 50,000 instead of the present method of just writing the PAN number in the challan.—S. Muralidharan, K.K. Nagar Problems aplenty at tax collection centers Sir, Property tax, water and sewerage charges for new flats situated in West Mambalam are not being collected at the Bhakthavatsalam Street Depot office for the past 2 years. The owners are forced to go to Corporation Office collection centers at Kodambakkam (near Power House) to make the payments. The counters are also not functioning properly and often the payers are forced to go multiple times to make payments. The same is the state of affairs of centers in Mambalam and T. Nagar as well. Elderly persons are hence put to lots of hardship. The staff said the issue of new cards is likely to get delayed by two to three months. I request the concerned authorities to take remedial measures to ensure that the counters function properly and also start collecting taxes for new flats at Bhakthavatsalam Street Depot office.— T.V.

Chennai Corporation has granted the private contractor further time even after the four revised deadlines were breached over the past three years. The Rs. 100-crore project which is being carried out under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal (JNNURM) Scheme was commissioned to the contractor in 2010 and was to be completed in 26 weeks. The work involves replacing the canals 40-yearold brick walls with wider concrete walls for a stretch of 7.4 km. The work has been held up as Tamilnadu Slum Clearance Board is yet to evict and rehabilitate slum dwellers that have encroached on the stretch lining the canal. An official said that with the encroachments in place, the contractor is not able to move the heavy machinery needed in carrying out the work. The three year delay has also increased the cost of the project, he added. and devotional programs The following are the program details: May 4: 6 a.m: Ganapathi Homam followed by Kalasa sthapanam; 7.30 p.m: Namasankeerthanam by Krishnapuram Subramanian & group.
