Returning to Chennai after completing official visits in southern districts, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin conducted an impromptu late-night field inspection in Velachery, personally meeting municipal sanitation and drainage workers actively clearing stormwater in Kalki Nagar. Stalin praised their selfless dedication and arduous physical labor in the face of continuous torrential rains, declaring that frontline civic workers constitute the true unsung heroes protecting the metropolis from catastrophic inundation.

Velachery, a low-lying residential neighborhood historically vulnerable to severe water stagnation during Northeast Monsoons, witnessed rapid water clearance due to the swift deployment of heavy motor pumps and newly constructed drainage canals. Stalin spent time conversing with the conservancy workers, inquiring about their workplace safety, welfare provisions, and warm refreshment supplies during night shifts. He directed municipal supervisors to ensure comprehensive protective gear, regular medical checkups, and prompt overtime compensation for all emergency crews.

The Chief Minister affirmed that the state government deeply values the tireless labor of its grassroots workforce. By personally visiting field sites and recognizing municipal employees, Stalin reinforced administrative morale, ensuring coordinated disaster mitigation efforts continue protecting urban residents throughout the monsoon season.
