Children and youngsters are back at their favourite playground in R. A. Puram

Children are back to playing cricket at the Chennai Corporation playground opposite Jesus Calls hall in R.A.Puram.

The ground is the only nearest play space for children and youth from local areas including Velleswaran Thotam and KVB Gardens.

However, it was not accessible to them for the past two months as Urbaser Sumeet, the private agency handling conservancy operations in the neighbourhood had taken over it to temporarily station its colour-coded bins.

Recently, the agency cleared most of the bins from the ground.

And hence, local kids are back to playing here.

However, there are still a few bins stationed near the ground’s basketball court. “We hope the agency will clear them soon, ” the children say.
