CHENNAI: Chief Minister MK Stalin announced on Thursday that a state-of-the-art library and technology centre in the name of former chief minister ‘Kalaignar’ M Karunanidhi would be built in Tiruchy, along the lines of the Anna Centenary Library in Chennai and the Kalaignar Centenary Library in Madurai.
Construction of a similar library in Coimbatore, which was announced in the state budget, would start later this year, the CM informed the state assembly.
CM Stalin also announced plans to set up an international airport in Hosur. “The proposed airport, with a capacity to handle 30 million passengers per year, will be sprawled over 2,000 acres”, he told the House.
The Chief Minister added that the libraries announced for Coimbatore and Trichy would be an extension of the library-cum-knowledge center development mission of the DMK government which had unveiled the Kalaignar Centenary Library in Madurai on September 15, 2023. The DMK had laid the foundation for the library development mission in Chennai in 2010 when the then CM Karunanidhi had established the 3.3 lakh sq ft Anna Centenary library capable of accommodating 1,200 people at Kotturpuram in Chennai, he noted.
