@TheVenks @CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ If Congress also joins, would actually put most pressure on govt, as they are in alliance. Fingers crossed! 🤞

@TheVenks @CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ This is nice! Hope Udhayanidhi, EPS and the lone BJP MLA raise this with utmost importance in upcoming TN assembly, and show that all parties agree on importance of Parandur!
English
Please @CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ should consider the utmost criticality of moving ahead with #Parandur airport 🙏🏽
It is literally going to be the deciding factor of the fate of the KTCC or the larger TamilNadu state's economy in the next two decades and there is no other option unless the potential growth story is accepted to be compromised 😞
Would request @TRBRajaa & other opp. political peers - that all opposition parties take this up as a united front to convince the present government about the importance of this project and stand behind it till the project moves forward to execution.
This will also give confidence to the present govt. with all parties backing the decision and to not delay it further ! 🤞🏽it is do or die subject for the state !

Dr. T R B Rajaa@TRBRajaa
The Union Ministry of Civil Aviation’s reply to Honourable MP @PWilsonDMK in the Rajya Sabha confirms that the Government of India granted ‘In-Principle’ approval for the #Parandur Greenfield International #Airport on 07.04.2025, based on TIDCO’s proposal. This is yet another affirmation that the #DravidianModel Government under the leadership of the then Honourable Chief Minister @mkstalin meticulously secured every statutory and stage-wise approval required to make #Chennai’s long-awaited ***dual independent runway*** Greenfield International Airport a reality. 🛫 Tamil Nadu cannot afford to mortgage its future to political grandstanding. Chennai urgently needs a 5,000+ acre next generation aviation hub with two “independent parallel” 4000Mtrs+ CodeF runways (not intersecting runways like Meenambakam which curtails runway capacity with lengths of 3600+Mtrs Code4E and 2000+Mtrs Code 3C ), MRO facilities, cargo terminals, aerospace industries, logistics parks, hotels and some room for future expansion. The site was chosen after extensive technical evaluation, balancing aviation requirements, connectivity, future scalability and minimising overall social and environmental impact. The #DravidianModel Government recognised the pain and angst of the affected villages and designed one of India’s most comprehensive rehabilitation and compensation packages to ensure affected families receive the best possible support while enabling a project that will benefit generations to come. Every responsible political party must rise above short-term politics and support transformational infrastructure that will shape Tamil Nadu’s future. Every decision on critical infrastructure must ultimately be guided by science, technical expertise and the long-term interests of Tamil Nadu. It is deeply unfortunate that a project of such strategic importance now stands clouded by uncertainty, with the Government maintaining silence while media reports speculate that it has been abandoned. Our State deserves consensus, not political obstruction. #ParandurAirport #CMMKStalin #TNRising

@anbu_madras @UpdatesChennai What about the Chennai Trichy expressway? Is it dropped in favor of this now, or both are in plans? Or in some days, they are gonna say both are rumors, April Fool!?
English
The Tamil Nadu government is set to approach the National Highways Authority of India to widen the existing Chennai - Kanniyakumari National Highway into a six/eight-lane corridor.
The highway passes through Tindivanam, Tiruchirappalli, and Madurai.
This proposal does not pertain to the ECR. While a large stretch of the ECR is yet to be widened into a four-lane highway, the question of widening the ECR into an eight-lane corridor does not arise at present.

@UpdatesChennai @MtcChennai With the way they are driving around, accidents are bound to happen! They drive around like thugs getting extremely close behind small vehicles and overtaking dangerously! Private drivers are even worse. Its not training they need. Its severe punishments when causing accidents.
English
Freakish MTC Low Floor bus accident today at Perumbakkam. @MtcChennai need better training of drivers! Seeing so many accidents of late!!

@NammaChennai_ Exactly. The only other major thing was the airport. We know what happened there. Point is, he could do absolutely nothing next 5 years, and I strongly believe our people will re-elect him if he gives away some freebies that he promised during the election. Such is their IQ!
English
@TNInfraEnt It's possible. Except for Metro, we haven't built anything truly remarkable in the last decade or more.
English
Masterstroke for whom?
2.24 crore people voted for the DMK and AIADMK, both of which backed the Parandur Airport project.
Chennai cannot afford to delay a second airport. Without a clear plan in the next five years, the city risks losing millions of jobs, billions in exports, and future investments.
If corrupt DMK or AIADMK leaders illegally acquired land around Parandur, investigate them, prosecute them, and expose them. Don't punish millions of people by stalling a project the state urgently needs.
Playing politics with Chennai's future could cost TVK the support of neutral and swing voters in the next election.

@HariraamTrajan @UpdatesChennai I was about to comment the same 😂
English
@UpdatesChennai Wait for couple of days. They will come up with clarification that no such proposal is being pursued. Or they will say , it’s just initial proposal and no serious plan to implement
English
Good news...🚨
The new TN Govt is finally contemplating lowering the State-level Value Added Tax (VAT) on Aviation Turbine Fuel, which is amongst the highest in India... (Via Hindu)✈️⛽️

@NammaChennai_ Any speed, efficiency difference between regular ones vs hydrogen ones?

@omjasvinMD @TamilNaduInfra I see a pattern. Tvk considering something news comes out (fake or real, no idea). Someone even sneezes the name “protest” against it. The plan is either scrapped or news comes out saying such things were never considered, in first place. Nice! 👍🏻🤦♂️
English
Two major popular news which were tweeted by section of journalists yesterday were false:
1) TASMAC to planning to permit more restobars in Tamil Nadu / Tasmac to operate restobars.
2) ECR elevated corridor scrapped.

Hope its open soon and my Madurai starts shining! Hope they prioritize madurai airport expansion, compensating chittampatti protesters well!

@TNInfraEnt @UpdatesChennai @CMOTamilnadu Great infra is a must! Agreed! But nightlife is simply not my thing. I hate alcohol. Nightclubs maybe good for socializing but the alcohol economy is bad in long term in my opinion
English
More news coverage on the Resto Bar relaxation proposed by new Govt. We have been pleading for this to happen for years and it's finally happening. Wonderful move @CMOTamilnadu 👏🙏
English
@midhulaan30236 @UpdatesChennai Yeah, I am not saying I want them to lose everything. I want TN to progress too! Lets see how budget presentation goes. Also, if retaining itself becomes a challenge, signing new MoUs will be very hard. So this government would need to learn fast, atleast in industries area!
English
@TNInfraEnt @UpdatesChennai Its been 2 months lets wait , hd hyundai is not going anywhere.
Plus to industries minister credit , she visited the ulsan shipyard immeadietly after coming to power
English
These guys will never let TN Proposer man. Ugly unhygienic Tasmac bars have no place in TN. All states in India have moved towards resto bar culture. Protest for everything..😤

@UpdatesChennai Too many cancellations and backing out already. Lets see how this goes! Dont think much has been progressing so far. We are actually regressing. Parandur, no major new MOUs, uncertainty over retaining Hd Hyundai thoothukudi.
Back out this too, and we can be on way to Somalia
English
@UpdatesChennai Protests will always be there for everything! The leader has to be iron willed like JJ or Kalaignar, to implement anything. Lets see how strong this leader is. Backing out at the first sign of protest, is not a great leader’s sign.
English
@TheTamilTake @UpdatesChennai @CMOTamilnadu Right, that was just part of the point. I am not an economic expert and cant comment on exactly how much companies will move to Chennai, because of this one change.
But, I do know good urban infra and nightlife will attract the posh crowd, foreigners and be a cosmopolitan city!
English
@TNInfraEnt @UpdatesChennai @CMOTamilnadu Maatu vandi airport got me 😂
But jokes apart, these Faang guys aren't an indicator of economic growth. You are basically calling the top 5% and neglecting the remaining 95% white collar jobs

@TheTamilTake @UpdatesChennai @CMOTamilnadu Most people in IT are drunkards, and crave night life dude! Are you in IT yourself. If yes, you wont disagree with this point.

@TheTamilTake @UpdatesChennai @CMOTamilnadu Also I think you are having me confused as a bigger page. I’m new to X, and just a infra enthusiast. I dont post infra updates or anything, as I have a day job. Not looking for followers or anything. Just commenting my thoughts on latest infra updates from prominent pages.

@TNInfraEnt @UpdatesChennai @CMOTamilnadu Wtf are u I to recently bro!! You are equating bars to improving economy?? You should learn economics again
