K. Srinivasan, the village administrative officer (VAO) of Urapakkam village panchayat, agrees with him. The Urapakkam village panchayat comprises Kilambakkam, Iravanchery and Urapakkam villages and accounts for more than one lakh people. Prominent localities found near Kilambakkam include Manivakkam, Manimangalam, Mudichur, Padappai, Kavanoor, Kandigai, Nuthancherry, Pathuvencherry, Irumbuliyur, Sadananthapuram, Nerkundram, Vandalur and Guduvancherry. As per plan, the proposed new bus terminus in Killambakkam will host around 1,700 south-bound buses from the CMBT terminus in Koyambedu. ASI officials said that the proposed bus terminus project can be started away from the core area in the notified limits where megalithic burial grounds have been identified.
