Like that most veracious man of Kipling’s poem, ‘Municipal,’ we at Clean Coonoor ‘believe in well-flushed culverts,’ not that we were ever chased into one by an elephant in musth, but for the reason that an efficient storm water drainage is important not only in the aspects concerning health and hygiene, but by also playing a vital role in preventing mishaps such as flooding and mud-slips.
Hats off to our volunteers who accomplished the herculean task of cleaning them all with very little mechanical means at their disposal.
