I suppose this is video is in remembrance of things past. But I am wondering if the river then had a bad odor as it does today? Were the streets as clean as they appear to be? What happened, and why did Chennai get so dirty?
@fctorino I remeber reading somewhere that until the forties and fifties , people used to do Srartham (rites) for their forefathers at the Cooum. The river was that much clean and sanct . Those days people , including politicians wanted just as much was required for their everyday lives , not crorers and crores for luxuries. Simple life, unwired , unstressed and honest and hardworking
Thank u so much. iwish more photos of the then Main Roads,Trams Chinna bazar,Trains & railways and other transpors.I miss the peace and discipline and Innocence
It looked so much more peaceful back then, not chaotic as it is today! Thanks for posting them, since the current generation never knew what life was like back then, and probably will never know. This is just a glimpse.
Madurai, Kanchipuram, Kumbakonam, names go on & on all much older
