Chennai
Profile
Every person who has set foot into Chennai city is quite impressed
by its sheer vastness. This rich and extremely diverse cosmopolitan
city is home for a growing crowd. Apart from the regular Chennai
citizens who have lived on in the city for generation, there is
a constant flow of visitors who come in and go out either for
a visit or on tour. How does one keep a track on all these people?
How does one assure the safety of the citizens? What role does
sanitation play over here? Who becomes the vulnerable group? How
does one protect the masses? The government is highly sensitive
to all these issues and has also become aware on the viruses and
diseases that can spread from lack of sanitization. It is at this
point where the Chennai corporation steps forward and takes responsible
decisions in the management of the city’s health. Today
we have the Chennai Corporation AIDS Prevention and Control Society
that oversees all the projects and awareness campaigns and health
camps.
