Chennai Queen Mary’s MRTS station – For Trains or Trash?

People and Trash compete for Space in the “Queen Mary’s” MRTS stations in Chennai (and trash has an upper hand at this point).

Wanted to go to the beach the other day and got down in the Queen Mary’s MRTS station.
Man! It is awful, the way out towards the beach is filled with all kinds of trash. First there is encroachment on both sides of the road and is filled with junk, trash, people making it dirty in all possible ways.

While coming back, came through the temple arch and took right to get into the station. That road again is awful. No concept of even dirtying the edges of the road. One needs to hop,skip and jump to keep away from dirt all the while holding your breath.

Inside the station is filled with garbage in all possible places. Stink is spread well by the fans. All garbage cans were overflowing. Check out below.

Who is responsible for keeping this place clean – The corporation or Southern railway?

Can’t QMC or QMC Volunteers do something to keep this place clean for QMC students at least ?
