Chennai: This New Year’s eve was like no other

It was a given that the New Year celebrations would be subdued due to the government disallowing celebratory events at hotels, clubs and resorts and police announcing that Marina beach and Elliot’s beach will be shut. When the clock struck 12, most of the city residents welcomed the New Year indoors in contrast to the usual joyrides on the city roads. However, the beginning of 2021 was marred by incidents of violence as two persons were killed in separate incidents during drunken revelry.
