Hindu Munnani volunteers staged a protest near Guduvanchery bus terminus on Wednesday to protest the Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority’s move to acquire land belonging to Nandheeswarar Temple in Nandhivaram-Guduvanchery.
They were joined by 200 residents from Nandheeswarar Colony and Jai Bheem Nagar who said their livelihoods would be affected if the project was executed.
However, residents’ welfare association activists, who support the terminus project, said temple lands are being usurped by real estate sharks. — Staff Reporter
