... PROJECT BRIEF 0.1 INTRODUCTION Chennai is the fourth-largest city in India. It is a coastal city with the second largest beach in the world. The climate is hot and humid but the breeze blowing from the sea makes the climate bearable. It is India's major leather-producing center and the quality of leather compares with the finest in the world. The City with its present population of about 8 million generates about 11 million trips in a day, with about 6 million vehicular trips. The ever growing vehicular and passenger demands coupled with constraints on capacity augmentation of the existing network have resulted in chaotic condition during peak hours of the day. POPULATION The population of Chennai in1639 was 40000 and today the city is estimated to have a population of 7.5 million, which gives a population density of about 6482 per sq. km. It is observed that with the population growth between 1921 and 1981 has been very rapid and similar trend continues. INDUSTRIAL AND EMPLOYMENT SCENARIO Economic growth of CMA has been slower in the large-scale formal industrial sector compared to the growth in the small and marginal sectors in trade, commerce and transport.

The brand sold nearly 175,000 motorcycles in 2013. By SAMANTH SUBRAMANIAN Published: January 3, 2014 NEW DELHI, India — The Royal Enfield Bullet, often described as the oldest continuously produced motorcycle in the world, is a cult product for enthusiasts who love it for its vintage feel as much as for the thrum of its engine. Muscular and pliant, the Bullet — an Indian-made avatar of an old British brand — has found renewed popularity over the last few years, as leisure motorcycling in India has blossomed. Its manufacturer, Royal Enfield Motors, sold almost 175,000 motorcycles —Bullets as well as three other brands — in 2013. The company is now looking to push harder into British and American markets, hoping to follow in the wake of other Indian motor vehicle manufacturers that have competed hard with overseas brands even as their peers in other industries have struggled. Royal Enfield’s newest model, a midsize “cafe racer” called the Continental GT, was introduced at an elaborate event in London in September. “It’s the first bike that we’ve developed keeping the world market...

...The Administration of Justice in Madras in the Seventeenth Century Posted by Law Matters on 5/23/06 • Categorized as History,Primers The administration of justice in Madras in the seventeenth century can, by and large, be divided into two periods – that between1639 and 1665, and that between 1665 and 1687. Francis Day acquired a piece of land from a Hindu Raja in 1639. The Company built a Fort on it and called it Fort St. George. The Raja also granted the Company the power and the authority to govern a nearby village called Madraspatam. Madras, as it came to be known, was an amalgamation of Madraspatam or Black Town where the Indians lived and Fort St George or White Town where the British lived. It was an ‘Agency’ which was subordinate to Surat, the only Presidency of the time. It was headed by an Agent who had a Council to assist him. During the first period between1639 and 1665, the administration of justice was neither systematic nor regular. For example, when, in 1641, an Indian was accused of murdering a woman he was living with, no formal trial was held. A few questions were asked and the woman’s clothes and jewellery was (not too surprisingly) found in his house. That was deemed to be enough to condemn him, and the Agent communicated his findings to the Raja. The Raja ordered punishment to be inflicted according to English law – the condemned man was hanged to death. In White Town, it was administered by the Agent in Council who not only had vague and indefinite...

...The Grand Old North North Chennai. This abundant neighbourhood is picturised by narrow lanes that swirl and slither like countless slender serpents, thrust hastily into the space, wreathing desperately without a definite heading, just to relieve themselves from the clutches of the sordid structures, cramped and colly, perpetually cropping up beside them, diverse and anachronic in their designs. The neighbourhood is peopled by a bustling population, exercising multifarious vocations, whose diversity stands unparalleled in the entire region. The streets are always hustling with hawkers in ostentatious clothing and beggars with deformed limbs, trying every trick in the book to eek the sympathy out of one’s heart. Reminding one of Lord Kubera’s Alaka, the realm of Yakshas, Kinnaras and other preternatural beings, the entire neighbourhood is a world of its own. But the romantic onlooker will find tremendous heritage entombed under the sheath of malignance and stink that characterises today’s north. The locality’s first tryst with history occurs in the year 1639, when the idea of a city was ingrained here; thereby making North Madras the seed from which the entire Metropolis of today’s Chennai blossomed. But few people know about the hormonal slant of one man, Francis Day, that ultimately led to the founding of Fort St.George at its present location. Francis Day was an English merchant and a representative of the British East India Company. He brokered a deal with Venkatadri Nayak...

At the time, Indians rarely ate out and many wondered how the restaurants would overcome supply chain challenges and opposition to foreign investment. There are now an estimated 43 foreign restaurant brands operating 1,900 outlets across India. The number of home-grown chains is also rising as Indian firms adopt franchising or chain models to meet growing consumer demand for the dining-out experience. The rising number of restaurants does not present a significant opportunity for imported food products given relatively high tariffs and import restrictions on key products, but restaurants are introducing new cuisines and changing consumer tastes and preferences, a trend that could result in long-term opportunities for exporters. This report provides an estimated census of foreign and domestic casual and quick service restaurant brands operating in India. Things Have Changed Over the Past 20 Years...

Doctors who wanted to come back to their country of origin were more than happy to join Apollo. The hospital imported latest equipments and had a good success rate. By using sound marketing, they were able to build a brand name very quickly. The successful surgery of Vice-President of India was a major break through for them in brand building. India’s growing middle class were the target segment for Apollo Hospitals. The patients were ready to pay for quality treatment and this segment was growing at more than 8%.
