A swanky looking Iyyapanthangal Metro Rail station stands tall on Mount-Poonamallee Road. But one look at its backyard exposes the lacunae in civic infrastructure as many residents of Iyyapanthangal still lack access to piped drinking water facility and underground sewerage system.
A mass rapid transit system, considered a hallmark for development, has been established while some of the basic amenities still remain a distant dream. This reality holds good not just for Iyyapanthangal but also for quite a few areas in the Alandur Assembly Constituency.
