After a gap of 25 years, an educational institution in Tamil Nadu is set to host the annual session of the Indian History Congress (IHC). The 81st session of the IHC would be hosted by Madras Christian College (MCC) in Chennai in December.
“The MCC deems it a privilege to host this historic event this year. With the recent breakthroughs in archaeological excavations in Keeladi, Kondagai, Mayiladumparai and other sites, it is appropriate that we host the IHC in Chennai/Tamil Nadu to showcase them,” MCC Principal and Secretary P. Wilson said.
“The MCC is eager to invite the Chief Minister to inaugurate the session, as he has been a great patron of historical research and has already established the fact that Tamil Nadu organises such events in a short time with a world-class benchmark,” Dr. Wilson said.
