Chennai Tackling Water Shortage

This year the summer has taken a toll on everyone. With every passing year, the summers are getting hotter. The heat waves recorded this year are said to be one of India’s longest and most intense. The heat waves have already claimed many lives in several parts of the country. the temperatures in Rajasthan have risen up to 51 degrees Celsius. The heat waves are developing heat illness and heat stroke in all ages. Seeing these extreme conditions, the major ITs on Chennai’s Old Mahabalipuram Road is are asking their employees to work from home as a process of water conservation methods. Not only home the employees can work from any place of their convenience. There has been no rain in the region for over 200 days. They have taken this step to accomplish two targets with one hit, first to meet their targets and to battle the water shortage for the next hundred days. According to reports about 5,000 IT employees have been asked to work from home. Although, this is not the first-time companies directed the techies to work from home; four years back when the private tankers called for a strike the IT companies asked the employees to stay at home and work from there.
