Vadasserikkara - Chittar - Angamoozhy Road Being Ruined Due to Government's Lazy Attitude

The road connecting Vadasserikkara, Chittar and Angamoozhy is one of the major roads in Ranni area and was in a good shape till some time back. Recently the road is about to be ruined as the road is being under various threats from different departments. The road is being dug in many areas on behalf of solving the drinking water issue and there has been a lack of cordination between the PWD and the water authority regarding the same.

The PWD had made the road in a better shape some time back and now the water authority is racing to destroy it due to its lack of planning in solving the drinking water issue. A lot of  areas of the roads is being cut from one end to another to connect the water pipes and this will indeed help in the deterioration of the road. A lot of protest has arised from the common people as such activities are indeed wasting the taxe amount they have paid to the Government.

But since the water scarcity is on a high the common people are not in a position to respond intensively as they too need the water. The water authority is facing a lot of criticism as they have failed to provide a solution for this and even the staff associated with them are reluctant in solving such issues.

Here are some of the pictures of the digging work going on the Vadasserikkara - Chittar - Angamoozhy Road recently.

Ranni Badly Needs a Good Movie Theatre

Ranni is home to some of the biggest cinema crazy fans and still it does not have a top quality movie theatre. Most of the people in Ranni have to depend on other cities such as Kottayam or Changanacherry, if they are to watch a good movie along with their family. As of now Ranni has two theatres named Upasana and Sree Lakshmi and both of them are not good to watch film with family or our beloved ones.

Some time back there was another theatre named "Darsana" near Thottamon Kavu Devi temple and now the theatre is replaced by a petrol pumb. But "Darsana" theatre was also a countryside theatre like Upasana and Sree Lakshmi (formerly Mahalakshmi) and one could not watch any new films over there. Most of the movies that came to Ranni were either 2-3 months old and by then most of us would have heard the story or watched it from theatres in other cities.

The Upasana Theater was recently revamped, but still it is nothing more than a mediocre countryside theatre. In Ranni there is a good number of Tamil people and the two theatres mostly show Tamil movies which prevented the locals from visiting the theatres. If a good high quality theatre comes in Ranni it would be a great help for the locals who wish to watch quality movies with their family. It would also be a great success, as most of the youngsters in Ranni rushes to Pathanamathitta, Kottayam or Changanacherry to watch good and new films.
