T.N. CM Stalin announces an International Convention Centre in the name of Karunanidhi in Chennai

Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on June 2 announced that an International Convention Centre would be set up in Chennai in the name of former Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi. The centre would be set up on 25-acre land with a capacity to hold international trade exhibitions, technological conferences, events by international institutions and international film festivals.

Releasing the logo for the centenary celebrations of Karunanidhi, Mr. Stalin said he hit upon the idea recently while travelling in Singapore and Japan to attract investors. “It is my wish that it should be a world-class convention Centre,” he added.

Mr. Stalin said though the present Chennai Trade Centre in Nandambakkam covered 10,000 square feet and an additional 12,000 square feet building was being constructed, they were not adequate to meet the future requirements and the growing demand.
