Chandy Polytechnic College

Out here in Mullakkadu, the sun can be quite a bit much during the middle of the day. Chandy Polytechnic College is situated right in Chandy Nagar, and it is a busy place with students always moving between the labs and the classrooms. Thoothukudi is a hardworking town, and we try to reflect that in how we run things every day. There is usually the constant sound of machines or tools clanking from one of the workshops. It is not a quiet library environment most of the time. We have people coming in from all the nearby villages, looking to learn a trade and get a job in the industries nearby. The floors sometimes have a bit of dust from the wind, and we spend a lot of time cleaning up after the practical sessions are over. We do not have any fancy talk about the future; we just focus on the machines and the books we have in front of us today. The canteen is usually the heart of the place during the lunch break, filled with students talking about their exams or just complaining about the heat. It is a practical place for practical people. We have seen many batches come and go over the years, and each one leaves a little bit of their own mark on the walls. It is just a regular college doing its bit in this corner of Tamil Nadu, and we keep things moving as best as we can.
