The Madras High Court on Wednesday (April 1, 2026) ordered notices to the Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC) and the Chennai Commissioner of Police on a public interest litigation (PIL) petition filed by the MRC Nagar Residents’ Association complaining about heavy road traffic in their locality due to multiple commercial establishments.

The First Division Bench of Chief Justice Sushrut Arvind Dharmadhikari and Justice G. Arul Murugan passed the orders after hearing senior counsel P.R. Raman who said that the parking of private vans, which transport schoolchildren, on the roads throughout the day was also one of the reasons for the traffic congestion.
