47-year-old R Gopi, Maduravoyal resident, who is the corporation assistant engineer in charge of ward 136 in Kodambakkam covering Raja Mannar Salai, has been working nonstop to keep K K Nagar stagnation free. He has been working continuously, removing blocks from silt catch pits, chute pipes and canal disposal points. Gopi said inspections of major roads begin at 5 am daily and start working out solutions to drain water caused due to heavy rainfall in Chennai. Heavy overnight rainfall led to waterlogging in parts of Chennai on November 11 while schools and colleges remain closed in 14 districts of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry in view of the weather situation.
