Madurai > A future metro ???

[selvakumar]

Dear Selva,

Saw this only today. Great to read.

There are certain things that have already started like RR Industries Project at Sholankuricchi and Sahara City at Ring Road Avaniapuram .It is also a fact that Thangam Theatre has been bought by GV Films and Airport expansion works have also started.


இதில் 50% வந்தால் கூட நம்ம மதுரை எங்கேயோ போய் விடும். அந்நாள் விரைவில் வர வேண்டுவோம்.

வரும் என்ற நம்பிக்கையில் வாக்களிக்கிறேன்.



Regards

Murali sir,
Glad to hear about these things. Ithuvae periya news ah irukku :P

Do u feel that any of the above plans are practically impossible to implement w.r.t Madurai ?

and being a person from Madurai,

what do you feel about the concerns that the city's outlook will get changed / (destroyed ?? )

Everything else is Okay . But no IT park , no software companies please !!! Madurai is a bastion of tamizh culture . I like places like Madurai , Thanjavur and Tiruchi mainly for their semi-urban semi-rural look. I agree that people living in towns like Madurai should get their fair share of development funds. But do we need to set up IT companies everywhere to make the wheel of economy roll . IT comps pose a very serious threat to the pristine beauty of the temple town. Any other industry say textile , manufacturing , food will make use of locally available manpower only . But thats not the case with IT companies. If the people in power are keen to the take the burgeoning load off Chennai they should seriously think of developing dingy towns like Salem.

I don't know why you have so much hatred towards IT guys.

People like me love to work in Madurai or even in Sivakasi.

Going to work from Virudhunagar through train at 8am in the morning in the Erode express and returning to home at 6pm is one of those things that every IT guy working now in Bangalore, pune etc will LOVE TO HAVE. :P And that too, with MOTHER'S FOOD.

And Madurai la velai paarthuttu, sontha oorula Or madurai la FIRST DAY FIRST SHOW padam paarkurathu :P

I want these things to be completed with 5 years :P That is my wish. Let us hope that IT guys maintain the look of Madurai
