Chennai has quite a few statues of various leaders from across the state. Apart from various memorial halls / memorial places for many leaders, the statues also are present in quite a few traffic junctions.

One such statue of, Veeran Azhagu Muthukon, at the Egmore junction is seen here. My understanding about who he is “is limited”, like he’s from Tuticorin district and from a place called Kattarangulam. Where he’s supposed to have a memorial built for him by the State government.
