Unauthorised signboards Sir, - A number of unauthorised signboards and direction indicators is being put up in various roads and public places inside the municipal limits of Thripunithura. There has been spurt in such signboards and most of the roads, by-lanes, and housing colonies are being named according to the wishes of the residents of that area, without the approval of the authorities. Such naming of roads and streets is creating a lot of confusion for the various Government departments and the public in general. These unauthorised structures, mounted on public roads and bell mouths of bylanes, hinder the free flow of traffic. I request that the Thripunithura municipal authorities initiate measures for removing such boards at the earliest and take actions against those resorting to such acts in future. Joseph George A Thripunithura Facilities for pedestrians Sir, - There are many parts in the M.G. Road where the pedestrians experience difficulties in crossing the road. The bus stop at the South is one such point. It is very risky for the aged persons to use the present arrangements for the purpose. A more demarcated crossway with slight bump is essential here. It is not that difficult as there is no specific traffic signal system working nearby. Another area is the bus stop in front of the Maharajas College ground. A pedestrian crossway without bump may be considered at this point. The earlier problem at Katcheripadi was eased owing to the presence of traffic police personnel and the diversion of bus services during the peak hours. C.P. Velayudhan Nair North Edappally Refrain from criticism Sir, - _The unfortunate death of a newborn at the General Hospital, Ernakulam, on July 2 has led to a despicable crossfire between the doctors and the nurses there. The Nurses' Association first went public alleging corruption among medical officers and even named a gynaecologist as the culprit. In return, the Kerala Government Medical Association has accused nurses of gross negligence in handling the case. As an inquiry into the death is underway, both the Association should have refrained from washing dirty linen in public. What is urgently needed is a congenial atmosphere in the hospital for better service to the patients. N.K. Vijayan Kizhakkambalam
