CHENNAI: With the sounds of laughter, gushing waves and cheers of celebration.
Two cyclones — Nivar and Burevi — in two weeks, and several days of incessant rains later, waterbodies in Puducherry are overflowing, giving its denizens a reason to rejoice.
Residents from across the city made a beeline to the two check dams — Sellipattu and Manalipattu — that were fast filling up.
With major tanks brimming, the Vedur dam too was opened, offering a delightful sight to onlookers. G Pattabi Raman captures this rare occurrence.
