Irregular bus timing
City buses operating between Arapalayam and Kappalur often fail to adhere to their schedules, causing hardship to daily commuters. Irregular services and frequent breakdowns make it difficult for employees and students to reach their destinations on time.
Instead of operating at regular intervals, several buses often arrive together after long gaps, affecting work and personal commitments.
The transport authorities should ensure strict adherence to schedules and provide reliable service for commuters.

Unsafe practice
The practice of serving hot snacks such as vadas and samosas on newspaper sheets continues in many tea stalls despite food safety concerns. Printing ink and newsprint are not meant to come into contact with food, particularly hot and oily items, as chemicals from the paper may migrate into the food.
Food safety authorities have repeatedly advised against the use of newspapers for wrapping or serving food. Yet, the practice remains common in many eateries.
The Food Safety Department should conduct regular inspections and strictly enforce the ban on the use of newspapers for serving food in the interest of public health.
