Citizens guardians trust
Wednesday, July 9th, 2008Go to Ashok Pillar area and ask for one Ravi aka V.Ravichandran, the founder chairman of Citizens Guardians Trust. Chances are you will be taken straight to his place by the locals.
Citizens Guardians is a trust which was formed with the sole motto of taking up public interest/civic issues that affect the common man of Chennai.
He has been in the news on the CCRCP issue, allegedly one of the biggest con-acts by the bureaucracy in the history of Tamil Nadu state.
Before someone starts off with,”aama, ivaru case pottu.. adhu vandhu.. jeyuchu.. ” raagam, let me tell you he has already been quite successful in rescuing a public park in Ashok Nagar area. That is just a single instance that i recollect now. I am sure there are lot more successful initiatives to his credit.
I was told he was even featured on ibnlive.
I have promised to do a website for him. I have also offered to assist him in taking photographs for his public interest initiatives when I am free.
It takes a lot of guts, gumption and good sense to stand against the political big wigs of chennai, endure the apathetic ‘india urupadadhu’ junta, the judicial delays, the ever pervasive corruption and yet win landmark cases for the common man. Mr. Ravi has been doing just that.
Why don’t you guys call and convey your ‘outside’ support, if not inside support? After all he is working for us. A work in which we have as much responsibility as this forty-two year old resident of Ashok Nagar.

Even I too would’ve liked him to be written about in Vikatan, Kumudam etc than a blog which is read by a handful at best. But then he is neither Shreya nor Kadu Vetti Guru. Whats the point? Totally bland. No masala
