Right to Equality and Equal Protection of Law

Right to Equality


Indian Constitution provide Equality for all. But reality is it absolute? The point is no right is absolute in India. A reasonable restrictions are towed along with the rights granted to Indian citizens. Yet what happen when such reasonable restrictions go beyond normal human reasoning? This what happens in Chennai Domestic Arrival. The VIP culture dominate common man needs.

Renovated Chennai International Airport

Recently, The Chennai International Airport was renovated. The infrastructure facilities went beyond the expectations. Yet people enjoy the benefits of such infrastructure projects. What is expected & what is the reality? The question is obvious when we enter the practical life of Chennaite. 

Discrimination in Chennai International Airport

If you are an ordinary passenger then you will not be able to board on your taxi or cars on the lane in front of arrival section. The reason is the lane is earmarked for the important key functionaries of the Government. Yet we understand the importance of Government functionaries. But the those related to such functionaries and film stars get the special treatment. Even on occasions, when no VIP arrives, the lane remains unused.

To Find Profit with Parking

The cabs and car owners cry foul that the aim of the authorities to collect irrational parking charges from the terminal users. Even to pick up someone we have to pay up the parking charge and wait near the arrival than to just drive and pick them up from the arrival. It is ordeal for elderly and senior citizens who deserves most care from the authorities. Those people have to either take walk to the car or wait until they can claim special benefit at the mercy of authorities.

Blame Game

A Policeman said the lane had to be restricted for use as it was being taken over by drivers who arrived early and slept in their cars. AirPassengers Association of India President Mr. Sudhakar Reddy said it was an excuse to benefit from parking lot revenue.

All are Not Equal

The tussle with which domestic arrival passengers are treated convey a clear message that all passengers coming out of that gate at Chennai airport are not 'equal'.
