CMC in CHITTOOR-one step forward
Dear friends, fist accept my apologies for absence from the blog for many days.
Now coming back to a vital developmental step for our chitoor...ie the establishment of CMC campus in chittoor. Many developments took place in this regard.
1. The January concil meeting of CMC was held on January 28,29,2010. All the members ofcmc council attended the meeting including members of FOV from all over the world.The meeting was mostly taken up with progress reports on the efforts to launch a new campus in Chittoor, Andhra Pradesh and to pass national legislation making CMC an “institution of national importance (INI).”The visionary director of cmc, Dr Suranjan bhattacharjee explained the status of new campus, and stressed for the expansion of cmc for future needs and turn into Centre of national importance.
The council agreed with him and empowered him to proceed with this matter as the main motto of cmc itself is offering the HEALING HAND TO THE POOR
2. The key problem for CMC has been establishing clear title to all of the Chittoor land—some 600 acres that CMC has been promised by the state government. There always seems to be one more document that needs to be received before CMC can build a wall around the property, thus establishing ownership and control. Cmc director discussed this several times with Dist collector Mr Seshadri, who conveyed this to CM Peshi and Revenue depts with alternatives.
3. Finally Govt issued a G.O no 237 dated 26-3-10,transferring the promised 640 acres land with alternative 70 acres allotted from marikalakuppam village of gudipala mandal. with this a total land of 640.17 acres has been clearly transferred to CMC. As the major road block is cleared, cmc association initiated steps to start constructing wall around this land
Now let's wait and see when cmc in Ctr will fructify.

CMC in Chittoor- Just another dream????
See this report in Hindu newspaper on 10-12-09
VELLORE: There is no move on the part of the Christian Medical College (CMC) Council to shift the CMC Hospital from Vellore to Andhra Pradesh, Suranjan Bhattacharjee, director of the hospital, told The Hindu on Wednesday.
He was responding to a question from this correspondent whether the CMC has any plan of shifting the hospital campus to Andhra Pradesh. Vellore MLA C. Gnanasekaran had made a plea at a function in the CSI Central Church here on Wednesday to the hospital administration to give up any ‘move’ to shift the hospital to A.P., where it had purchased about 300 acres of land for a hospital complex.
Participating in the birthday celebrations of Congress president Sonia Gandhi and Ida Scudder, founder of the CMC Hospital, organised by the Vellore District Congress Committee at the CSI (Church of South India) Central Church, Mr. Gnanasekaran said Dr. Scudder started the hospital in Vellore in 1900.
There was then a need for women doctors to treat women from backward communities as three pregnant women hailing from three different communities had died owing to their reluctance to be examined by male doctors.
The CMC Hospital and the floating population visiting the hospital from different parts of the country and abroad had contributed to the economic development of Vellore, and therefore the hospital should not be shifted from here, Mr. Gnanasekaran said.
“This is our home, and there is no question of shifting the hospital to Andhra Pradesh,” said Dr. Bhattacharjee. “We are planning a second campus in that State, and we are still in the process of discussing it,” he added.

Latest developments in chittoor
1. CMC director suranjan bhattacharjee has met AP CM Rosaiah during his recent visit to tirupati and requested him to attend the foundation laying ceremony of new CMC hospital at chittoor. my sources at CMC vellore informed me that now they are going to start a 50 bedded hospital only. The others plans of medical and allied colleges are not touched as of now. I don't know how many months or years more should chittoor wait for a medical college.
2.Tenders were issued for technical feasibility of 4 laning the Nh4 from ranipet to nangali via Chittoor. Surprisingly this is the second time tenders have been called for same purpose, the first one being called in October 2008 by ministry of road transport and highways (MORTH) . I wonder if just the technical feasibility and viability study is taking so long then when exactly the road work will start. I also don't understand why this work is taken up by MORTH instead of NHAI. lots and lots of dicrimination huhhhhh.
3.Indian oil corporation has called for the tenders for setting up of a bulk modern storage terminal at chittoor for the ongoing Chennai-Chittoor-Bangalore oil pipeline. This storage and distribution terminal will cater the needs of sorrounding kolar, chikballapur, kadapa and Nellore districts in addition to Tirupati. Atleast one project is getting acomplished.
My dear friends, if any one of you, especially those staying in chittoor have any other information regarding any sort of developments in and around our Chittoor kindly mail me at
ctrivenkatesh@gmail.com so that we can share it with everone

New Developments in Chittoor.
1. New collectorate is now fully functional with most of the departments started working from their new offices. New compound wall and internal road works are pending.
2. The road from PCR Junction up to SV Engineering College-railway gate has been repaired and resurfaced. Now the road is smooth and motorable.
3. New butterfly lighting has been installed on the divider at railway under bridge in kattamanchi.(But this is a very small stretch. Why not extend this divider upto sugar factory by little road widening and install central lighting for the entire stretch. This will atleast give the much needed look to our town to anyone arriving or passing through chittoor.)
4. In the railway station new platform shelters are being constructed on platforms 2 & 3. The fifth line(Goods Line) is being electrified. Work for installing LED based Coach guidance boards has started. The parking area infront of railway station is being extended.
5. No news on CMC, or the Digital World City by Amarraja group.
6. Gayatri-JMC joint venture has bagged the tender for widening of chittoor puttur road ( Which includes 4 laning from Estate to Thana Jn) by quoting 113 crores for this project. Central govt has sanctioned the 20% viability fund. Now works are awaiting the funds release from world bank.
