Save Anna Centenary Library - Please sign the online petition‏

Dear All,

Please sign the online petition following the link and spread the news!
http://www.change.org/petitions/chief-minister-of-tamil-nadu-miss-j...

Please sign this Online Petition requesting not to convert the Anna Centenary Library into an Hospital. Ever since JJ came to power she has been undoing all good things that were done by KK. We may not support KK Politically but a Library is a place where we as human beings can impart and develop our knowledge. We were silent when she converted the new assembly building into an hospital... we were silent when she changed the uniform education system... We were silent when she announced converting Metro rail to Mono Rail... But this has reached to heights of JJ's paranoia.

whatever vengeance she has towards KK is to be dealt with Politically & by not changing everything that were done during his rule. This time we will not keep silent! We will not support her into this atrocity of converting the Library. If a Multi-Specialty Children's hospital is needed 'SO BE IT'! There are empty lands in & around chennai where it could be built.

Moreover Being an Architect I can vouch, it is stupidity to convert a library building into Hospital. Both are entirely different buildings which need different thought process in designing. The infrastructure & facilities for an hospital can never be introduced suddenly into an Existing Library Building. This process will put in more efforts, energy & money than building a new one.

Being an academician, a voracious reader & books enthusiast I can never fathom how a human being can ever think of doing such stupid act! 'Only Amma fossible'! Lets raise to the occasion and spread this online campaign of saving a world class library! rightfully for our children's future!

thanks & regards,
P.Saravana Kumar
