Introduction
Chennai, the fourth largest city of India, in terms of area, is a well spread out city. It has expanded into the distant suburbs the new Mega city plan now being implemented includes these areas as well. Once the process is complete in the next few years, it is said that Chennai as a city will be the second in India, after Mumbai, in terms of area.
Be that as it may, there is an interesting fact about Chennai. When a college is started in a particular area, that particular suburb also develops. Immediately, the Metropolitan City Corporation starts a new route and a few buses start plying to that suburb. This, in turn, brings in new people, who buy up all the residential plots and the constructions begin. The college becomes the focus of all attenation. The real estate activities start picking up and there is no looking back. The story of the Jaya Engineering College, is one example. Situated approximately around 35 kilometers away from Chennai Central on the North West direction, (the Mumbai/Bangalore/Coimbatore train route) this once sleepy suburb is now the most happening one in that part of the city. The Jaya Engineering College is now so famous in North West Chennai. There are direct EMU trains and the new roads and bridges that connect to the Central bus station called Koyembedu, within just twenty minutes, has sent the real estate prices to the skies, literally.
Alongside this development, areas connected to one of the poshest localities in Western Chennai, called Anna Nagar, have boomed too. It should be noted that the distant suburb of Red Hills, to which there are hundreds of city buses, has boomed too. It is here that the second college of this article, the Gojan School of Business and Technology is situated. It has now transformed itself into a branded college of good repute in this part of Chennai.
