The Greater Chennai Corporation disseminates information to those citizens that fall under the Greater Chennai ambit. The handle regularly engages with the public, offers emergency alerts during calamities, conducts events to build the community, and also keeps the citizens well aware of its services and campaigns.
However, they faltered and the public noticed it. This time, it was a mix-up that happened days after an important event happened in the city.
Tamil Nadu went to the polls on 19 April 2024. While the Greater Chennai Corporation’s handle did regularly share information, and alerts, and run awareness campaigns on social media, they goofed up big time.

On 23 April 2024, 4 days after the state polled, the Greater Chennai Corporation handle shared a voter awareness post. They wrote, “Your Vote, Your Right. Don’t forgo your right for anyone. Let’s vote. Election Day is April 19, 2024″
Post was deleted.🤣🤣

Netizens noticed this goof-up and mocked the handle for it.

Upon realising their folly, the handle deleted the post.
