Just Imagine---is possible at this hour /stage


                                    Just Imagine---is possible at this hour /stage


In earlier to 1970s, Kirthigai star days special buses were ply from kodambakkam Railway station to vadapalani temple and also  people can hire jadka at the kodambakkam Railway station ( a horse-drawn vehicle is a mechanized piece of equipment pulled by one horse. These vehicles typically had two wheels  were used to carry passengers .They were once common worldwide, but they have mostly been replaced by automobiles. These things are remembered by the old residents of kodambakkam.

Now buses can not operate from kodambakkam Railway station due to encroachments in and around kodambakkam Railway station .These kind of jadkas are faded out due to modernisation of transport. 

This information (Blogg) is just to recollect the old memories.

Smt. Vedam  Srinivasan my mother and family members had a single storied house in New No.17, Old.No.5, Main Road ,Zackria Colony, Choolaimedu,Chennai-94 standing on a piece of land measuring around two grounds .

The family members were interested in converting into apartments, so that
the family members can provide fairly large sized apartment each one of our family members.Family members were on the lookout for a builder for a joint venture, who would be quality conscious and ethical in business principles.

In and around Zackria Colony and Kodambakkam, we found many new buildings carrying the Chennai R.A.S constructions logo, this gave us the confidence that we would be dealing with a company that has stood not only the test of time but was also reliable and trustworthy. Their designs and elevations  are wonderful, and in all the apartments had good provisions for sufficient cross ventilation. Family members admired the most in them was their steadfast adherence to ethical practices in all their operations.

The company has successfully completed many projects. Today the Company has to its credit over 3 lakhs  sq. ft. of built up quality space, with such rich, novel comforts and conveniences.  Behind all these Master pieces lies the legend, the young and dynamic Managing Director Shri. A.S.George. Ex. Councillor of this area. The chennai R.A.S Construtions is a well known name in the city of Chennai.

The Family members were particular about Quality and Non Deviation. We made enquiries of the feed  back about Chennai R.A.S Constructions , and was quite satisfied. We, then ventured to meet Sri.A.S.George Managing Director of Chennai R.A.S.Constructions .

Family members were quite impressed. We felt that he is conscious of quality, rules and regulations and more importantly he adheres to ethical business  practices . We truly felt comfortable in his presence and knew at once that we had found our builder.

 Apart from all these things Sri. A.S.George is our family friend.

The family members entered into a Joint Venture Agreement( 2010). with Sri.A.S.George Managing Director of Chennai R.A.S.Constructions and with a lot of detail.

He handed over completed building with reasonable time frame. Friends who visited during construction praised the quality of work. Visitors after completion were impressed with finish and design. It gave us immense pleasure and we very happy with the great job that they did.

M/S.Chennai R.A.S Constructions definitely does not fail to impress and gives us immense pleasure in owning a home. We the family members are express our utmost Thanks and Appreciation to Sri.A.S.George, Managing Director of Chennai R.A.S.Constructions

The staffs were most co-operative and accommodative in accepting suggestions for minor modifications. Hard-Work, dedicated workforce, skilled  labour, extremely professional architects and engineers have contributed .

Engineer Sri N..Kanagasabai, he is a man of Principle, sincerity,loyal,and dedicated person. We are proud of his association with us. Similarly Sri.D.Raja Singh is also very good with all and soft nature man.

Celebrating the 50th year of social activities (1968-2018)


S. Kasturi Rangan
       Celebrating the 50th year of social activities 
                               (1968-2018)

 
I was born as the first son to my parents Late sri.N.Srinivasan and Smt.Vedam Srinivasan in the year 1950 at my maternal grandfather’s house at Ramanathan Street, T. Nagar.
I did my elementary level schooling at Saraswathy Vidhayalaya, Kodambakkam and high school level at Sri Ramakrishna Mission Boys High School.(Main) T.Nagar  and graduated with B.Com degree from New College, Chennai.

Married my soulmate Ms.Radha in the year 1981. She has been my support throughout the journey. I have two children, Daughter Pavithra married to Prasidh Ramabadran and has grand-son Baby Ayan, and Son Venkatesh married to Shravanthy and has grand-son chi.Adithiya.

I served at Tamil Nadu Civil Supplies Corporation Ltd for more than 30 years in different roles, Liaison officer, Sales Development officer, Assistant Public Relations Officer and retired as Public Relations Officer.  During my tenure, apart from my regular duties, the two important tasks that I have lead were that of General Secretary to Tamil Nadu Civil Supplies Corporation Ltd. Central Sports Council in the year 1995 and the work regarding the 22nd  International film festival 1991.

My Association

Naraseva, Narayanaseva is my Tharaga Manthra. I believe that Happiness is found in helping others.
This year 2018 is the 50th year of my Social Activities. The span of 50 years of my Social Service was not a smooth one. If I’m proud of something, it is the time and effort I had put in for 50 years in various social Activities. My small contribution to the society gives me a sense of satisfaction and bliss. I strongly believe that one’s action should be remembered even after gone. I’m happy that I have no regrets and have given back something to the society.

Let me narrate my Social Activities in 50 years .

v Shanthi Arts Academy (1968 to 1988 )

A group of enthusiastic and enlightened youngsters, inspired by the ideals of art founded 
the Shanthi Arts Academy (a cultural organization) on 28-9-1968.The main objective of the
academy is to promote art.Got associated with it as early as 18 years of age (in 1968)
· Have been instrumental in conducting more than 500 Cultural programmes


v Zackria Colony Resident’s Welfare Association (1980-till date)

I have been a resident of Zackria colony (Choolaimedu) since childhood. Quite few of the residents of the Zackria colony felt that adequate security and civic amenities had not been provided. This exigency prompted the conveners into forming a welfare association in Dec.1980
                                                                                                                                                
 I was the founder Secretary of the Welfare Association and forefront in conducting many awareness programmes organized by Zackria Colony Residents Welfare Association
·       For a decade until 1990, I have served actively in the association in different capacities
·       I had to take a break from my involvement with the association for 9 years until 1999 as I had to work outside Chennai on my official transfer at Civil Supplies Corporation. After 2006 association activities slowly detrimental due to various reasons. In these years I used to address the problems individually.

After a long gap, in the year 2015, I had revived the Zackria Colony  Resident’s              Welfare   Association. Many resident members volunteered and participated  in the meetings and various activities. Now it is alive and kicking.  
       
At this juncture, as a Chief Co-ordinator of Zackria Colony Residents Welfare Association I congratulate the President and Secretary members of the past and also all those who worked for the welfare of the association, for their yeomen services, exemplary commitment and utmost dedication all of which has helped Zackria Colony Residents Welfare Association to grow strong. The volunteers were the jewels of Zackria Colony. All of us have grown old physically together, however, our spirit and enthusiasm remain youthful. 

I salute their  contribution and dedicate the success of all our accomplishments to them .

Note of Thanks


The success of CEIC is not merely club’s achievements. They are members’ achievements. These are our achievements. We continuously strive to put in sincere efforts for a better Choolaimedu.

Mr. Nirmal is my inspiration. He was the one who brought me into Exnora and have been my guidance. Today, I dedicate the success and my accomplishments to Mr. Nirmal.

My special thanks to Mr.R.Govindaraj, Joint General Secretary of Exnora who is an outstanding social worker. He mentored me during the initial days and helped me transform into the new role quickly and smooth. He is one of the most distinguished person, an outstanding social worker, a great humanist and a great leader. I am proud of my association with him who is considered an asset to the Exnora international.

I convey my thanks to Sri Dr.A.Panneerselvam (President of the Choolaimedu Exnora) for the encouragement he has given to me all these years for the successful running of the Choolaimedu Exnora.

I’m sure Choolaimedu Exnora will move faster and will do much. Leadership in Exnora is very different. It means more loses than gains, more hard work, more sacrifice, more sleepless nights, more financial obligations, more commitments and above all, the most precious personal time . Despite all hardships, Exnorans  take up smiles in their faces and pleasure in their hearts.

I believe that progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds, cannot change anything.

Currently, I serve as the Vice President in Exnora International, Secretary in Choolaimedu Exnora Innovator's Club, Life member in Indian Red Cross Society and Member in the Disaster Management Committee in YMCA Kilpauk.

More than what I gave for Exnora, what I received is ten folds. I gained number of friends, which I feel is a privilege and a gift in one’s life. It will be hard to believe in the age of social networking that we maintain our friendship and networking without the help of Facebook and Whatsapp. My friendship with Mr.M.B.Nirmal, Mr.R.Govindaraj and Dr.A.Panneerselvam has been very special. Today, I dedicate the huge success of my Exnora life to them.
I am very popular among the residents of Choolaimedu and influential among the officials of the Greater Chennai  Corporation , Metro Water , Police Department and EB. I have known nothing more than solving civic issues and being a liaison between the public and Govt officials.

With the grace of God and my faith in my mission, the journey has been long. I don’t see an end to it, simply because I feel that my work is never ending. 

What I have done is very little. There is much more to do.

As far as I am concerned, I live in the present and look towards the future. Great public person come and go, but what remains behind are some unforgettable impressions and heroic deeds, which transform the society for good.

From inauguration to this 18th year I have been speaking to the members from Dias. This has been possible only because of members affection and support. As a secretary, I pay tribute to the former President, former office bearers of our club who have contributed to the growth of this great club. Today I bow my head in homage to the memory of our late members.

I would like to thank the Hon’ble Mayor, the elected representatives, our founder, office bearers of Choolaimedu Exnora, officers of Chennai Corporation, Metro water, Police Department and Electricity Board who have spared their support.

I take this opportunity to thank all the noble hearts who appreciated and encouraged our activities. I pay tribute to all those who worked for the upliftment of the Choolaimedu residents. What one achieves for the sake of others is greater success than what one achieves for oneself

I would like to tell you that the Choolaimedu Exnora is marching ahead on the road to progress. There is no doubt about it. Our commitment should not be to any individual but to the future of Exnora. We are committed to it. Our job is to enhance and pass it on to the future leadership in a sound condition. As a secretary, I want to assure members that no effort will be spared by me to achieve this. I sincerely believe that Choolaimedu Exnora will keep rendering its services to the area with dedication and enthusiasm for the years to come.

As a secretary of Choolaimedu Exnora, I salute everyone and wish a great model area-to-be Choolaimedu

I like to stress on one thing, if you constantly keep looking back and harping on what goes on in the past, we cannot go on, can't do any public service. So if insisted on what transpired in the past, and dwell on issues that happened in the past, we will stagnate. It will preventing from moving forward.

Great public person come and go, but what remains behind are some unforgettable impressions and heroic deeds, which transform the society for good.
