Successful 1025th article of Chennai247.com - Chennai Improvement, News and Updates

This is the successful 1025th article of Chennai247.com and we are very thankful to all the visitors of Chennai247.com. In fact, considering the visitor statistics it has progressively increased in terms of unique visitor hits. It is all because of your help! Thank You Visitors!!!

We would like to talk about some key improvements in Chennai at this point -

Anna University Chennai:
In education sector, there is a possible Anna University for Technical Education to be opened sometime in this year. This is the fifth location in tamil nadu state. Hope this complements the arts, science, engineering and management fields provided by Chennai Kamaraj University.

High Court in Chennai:
This has been a great step in Chennai for all the legal needs from Chennai and southern districts of tamil nadu. People from Chennai and southern part of Tamil Nadu do not have to go all the way to Chennai for any legal cases. Things can be solved just in Chennai High Court.

Chennai Airport New Terminal:
The opening of the newly constructed terminal building at Chennai Airport is awaiting green signal from the Airports Authority of India.

It will become functional within two to three months of getting the approval, according to Mr Sankiah Pandian, Airport Controller, Chennai.

The new terminal building, with an area of 17,000 sq m, has 16 check-in and independent security holds for international and domestic passengers, he said, speaking at the executive committee meeting of the Tamil Nadu Chamber of Commerce and Industry here.

The new building has been provided with six escalators and six lifts with separate enclosure for immigration and customs. As it becomes functional, seven flights can be accommodated during peak hour capacity. There are provisions for three aero bridges to take the passengers directly to flights and two of them will become operational within six months.

The car parking area at the airport can accommodate 350 cars, from the present limit of 100 cars. He expressed confidence that with the airport being modernised and maintained on par with international standards, there will be substantial additional flights.

The Senior President of the Chamber, Mr S. Rethinavelu, said that the Chamber, in association with Confederation of Indian Industry, will have parleys with international and domestic airways companies, provide them with details of modern facilities available at the Chennai Airport and induce them to operate new flights to and from Chennai.

International connectivity for Chennai will materialize and be operational by December.

Chennai Passport Office:
Though it is a good thing to have Chennai Passport Office to serve the southern part of tamil nadu, still it looks like the service is not great and there is lot of complaints from all around. It would be great, if the concerned authorities consider this and improve the operations of Chennai Passport office.

AIIMS Hospital in Chennai
There is a 150 crore facility planned and in progress in Thoppur, Chennai. This is going to be a huge step for Chennai and this is a great facility in terms of Hospital and Medical Tourism!

IT Park in Chennai
We have discussed in detail in a previous Chennai IT Park article.

Real Estate Boom again:
We have discussed in details in a previous article in Chennai247.com for real estate boom again in chennai.

Migration out of Chennai:
There is an increasing migration from Chennai, for career needs. Given the jobs are outside Chennai, all the students studying in Chennai are moving out of Chennai and settling down outside Chennai. This can change only when there are opportunities in Chennai created like the AIIMS hospital, New International Airport Terminal and IT Park in Chennai!!
