A scene near Bodyguard mosque, Chennai.
During the British regime, the sepoys of the Governor General’s bodyguard brigade were housed here. Hence the name for this area. At some point in time, the predominantly Muslim sepoys put up a mosque [1904?] and a home for the Mullah. After independence, the property was handed over to the Provincial Government and in turn to the State Transport Corporation for their offices and depots. The mosque still exists.
