Chennai is the most ugliest city and the people are the most uncivilized. They spit/piss/throw garbage anywhere. This is including the educated mass. If you ride a bike on the side of a bus there are every chance that someone will spit on your head. You can see the huge garbage all around the city, cattle, mosquitoes, stray dogs, ugly posters, stencil ink advertisements below bridges, cow dung everywhere, people passing uring on the walls of anyone's house, oh my god. the most dirtiest city. Absolutely no civic sense at all. This attitude is same with educated mass, all along the IT companies where they throw plastics, food waste everything anywhere. Guys if you got a transfer to Chennai pls quit your job. Chennai already looks like a city post-earthquake. why it needs a earthquake.

Tru but it is unfortunate that you can see only bad things. There are so many good things in Chennai like less crime, rich culture, good people, nice beach, restaurents etc. I am an outsider living in Chennai but really enjoy Chennai. Just because of some petty things, people need not quit their jobs if they are transferred to Chennai. You are just spreading a wrong message. All you need is to change your attitude.

Hi, I do not have any hatred towards Chennai. I know about the tradition and culture. But such people who maintain their tradi/cult, why not they do something towards this ill of society. It may not have many crimes but chennai but the attitude of people towards cleaniness is too bad. Everyone should accept the truth first only then we can improve on it. My argument is not about its tradition or crime rate. I am sure people who are born/brought-up/live in chennai would certianly agree that chennai is a garbage city and people with less/no civic sense. Do not compare other cities to hide your mistakes.

Look at Mumbai...people live like worms in ghettos. Once Monsoon starts, the cities filthy water will fill all the streets and people will have to wade throgh it....Every state has its good and bad. So lets enjoy the good things and try to whatever we can to remove the bad part.
