How neighbourhoods and gated communities in Chennai seek to keep their corner of the world safe from the scourge of disease-causing germs
Twice a week, Pioneer Colony in Anna Nagar engages the service of a sanitisation professional who goes door-to-door spraying germ-killing disinfectants.
“Initially, we would call the Corporation’s sanitation team to carry this out, but as we wanted every nook and cranny covered including the terrace, we engaged a private sanitation professional for the job,” says K. Prabodha Chandra, secretary of the Association that has 120 flats.
The association has invested in the machinery and chemicals, and the professional is paid for executing the sanitisation work.
