Mandavelipakkam residents put up posters to express protest against street name change

Protest posters have been hung from many gates of residences on 5th Trust CRoss Street in Mandavelipakkam by residents; this is to demonstrate their unhappiness at the state government’s decision to rename this street for which a function is planned today, Sept. 26 morning.

A resident said that this was to be a mass boycott of this event on the street.

He said a policeman threatened a resident this Friday morning to remove the posters which are hung from gates or walls of flats. “Are we not within our right to atleast protest within our premises. Not a single poster  is fixed in public space,”  the resident said.

He said the policeman has also photographed places which hold ip these posters.
