Rebuild the bridge. There's a whole slum encroaching the Adyar river mouth & beach which gets flooded during every monsoon & high tide. Need to take the Mumbai way of redevelopment. But sadly no initiative so far!!
Why wouldn't the TN Govt consider repairing or reconstructing this old, broken bridge between Besant Nagar and Link Road near Marina? It would save a lot of time and ease traffic problems. #Madras

Korean major 🇰🇷Hyosung TNS is considering the establishment of a greenfield manufacturing facility in Tamil Nadu for the production of ATMs serving both domestic and global markets... #InvestInTN #ATM 🏧
Under the leadership of Hon'ble CM Thiru C. Joseph Vijay, the Government of Tamil Nadu is committed to strengthening the state's industrial ecosystem and attracting global manufacturing investments. During my visit to South Korea, I had a productive meeting with the leadership of Hyosung TNS, a global leader in self-banking technologies. We discussed opportunities in Tamil Nadu and explored potential collaborations in advanced manufacturing and technology sectors. I am delighted that Hyosung TNS is considering the establishment of a greenfield manufacturing facility in Tamil Nadu for the production of ATMs serving both domestic and global markets. We will extend our full support to this initiative and look forward to welcoming Hyosung TNS to Tamil Nadu. @CMOTamilnadu #InvestInTN #MakeInTN #ThriveInTN #TamilNadu

TASMAC is a curse for Tamil Nadu...😤
@sameerangs @chennaicorp This is the condition of triplicane/chepauk/royapettah. - tasmac near schools - drunkards on footpaths - fastfoods using footpath for cooking - extended shops - cars and bikes parked as per wish - trucks parked on road selling groceries All my complaints are closed without resolution. This area has unofficially became a food street while buses had to squeeze through narrow roads. CC : @reclaimchennai @omjasvinMD @UpdatesChennai @Koushikhr_ias Credits : ferozvibes insta 👇

Replying to @CMOTamilnadu
@CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ sir what's your stance on Hosur Airport?? Previous govt almost started acquiring lands and were fighting with the centre for approvals. What are you planning to do?? We need airports for larger development. Hosur needs one!!
TIDCO to resubmit Hosur airport plan. Plans to use unused airstrips at Kovilapatti for FTO & Chettinad for drone operations. Fintech tower in Chennai to open shortly, while works on Global & Knowledge city in Advance stages... #InvestInTN #Tidco dtnext.in/news/tamilnadu/tid…

Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Andhra,Telangana,Karnataka,Delhi, and even communist dominated Kerala have built greenfield airports or privatised existing ones for better efficiency. But India's 2nd largest economy of TN hasn't. Tamil Nadu needs a capitalist driven party!

One month of the new Govt. Too soon a timeline to judge. But they want to prioritise transparency. Tamsac has been their focus. Urban infra given importance for the first time. One MoU signed with L&T. No major infra announcement yet. Hope they change their stance on Parandur!
One month of #TVK govt: Key takeaways from the early administration. • Focus appears to be on streamlining government functioning and reducing red tape and irregularities. • Move to eliminate limited / fixed tenders and tighten procurement processes with transparency. • Contractors reportedly put on notice across departments over compliance and timelines. Mainly Highways, PWD, MAWS, WRD - four cash rich departments. • Key rejig in town planning dept: 28-day deadline set for building approvals; officials told to avoid unnecessary summoning of builders, architects and applicants. All communications told to be kept online. • En masse transfers of officials aimed at resetting administrative structures, remove entrenched political nexus. • Digitisation push in public services, including Registration and HR&CE. Move to improve transparency and reduce crowd at sub registrar offices. • Review of old files and reassessment of ongoing projects before fresh approvals. • No major project announcements done yet, due to stricter scrutiny of proposals as many largely were done by previous regime. (Eg: Roads, drains or special projects). • IAS officers appear to have been given greater operational freedom on day-to-day administration. • Focus on tightening oversight and functioning of TASMAC operations. • Ministers still appear to be settling into governance roles, officials run the show. • Early emphasis seems to be on administrative clean-up, implementation of existing schemes, and maintenance of daily government operations. Next test: whether these administrative changes sustain and translate into faster delivery and visible outcomes. How quickly ministers get into their roles.

Korean based OEM Supplier 🇰🇷Motilink likely to expand it's industrial base in Tamil Nadu/Chennai... #InvestInTN #Automotive
Met with the leadership of Motilink in Seoul as part of our investment outreach efforts in South Korea. As part of Tamil Nadu’s proactive investment promotion initiatives under the leadership of Hon’ble Chief Minister Thiru C. Joseph Vijay, we highlighted the State’s strengths as a premier manufacturing destination. Motilink, a leading manufacturer of automotive electronics and a key supplier to Hyundai and Kia, expressed keen interest in expanding their manufacturing facility in Tamil Nadu to serve its OEM partners in the Country and Globe. Tamil Nadu’s strong automotive ecosystem, world-class infrastructure, and skilled workforce continue to attract leading global manufacturers and strengthen our position as a preferred destination for investments. @CMOTamilnadu #InvestInTN #MakeInTN #ThriveInTN #TamilNadu
