PM Modi to Inaugurate Projects Worth Rs 48 Bn in TN

 Prime Minister Narendra Modi will lay the foundation stone, inaugurate, and dedicate projects worth over Rs 48 billion during a public event in Tuticorin, Tamil Nadu, on 26 July. The visit follows his return from official trips to the UK and Maldives.
The projects aim to boost regional connectivity, logistics efficiency, clean energy infrastructure, and overall quality of life. Key initiatives include a Rs 450 crore new terminal at Tuticorin Airport, designed to handle 20 lakh passengers annually with sustainable features such as LED lighting and water reuse systems.
The PM will also dedicate two significant highway projects: the 4-laning of the 50 km Sethiyathope–Cholapuram stretch of NH-36 at over Rs 2,350 crore and the 6-laning of the 5.16 km NH-138 Tuticorin Port Road worth around Rs 200 crore. These projects are expected to reduce travel time, enhance cargo flow, and support port-led growth.
Additionally, Modi will inaugurate North Cargo Berth–III at V.O. Chidambaranar Port with a capacity of 6.96 MMTPA, and dedicate railway electrification and doubling works to strengthen eco-friendly transport and improve connectivity in Tamil Nadu.
He will also lay the foundation stone for a power transmission project to evacuate electricity from Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant Units 3 and 4.
On 27 July, Modi will attend the Aadi Thiruvathirai Festival at Gangaikonda Cholapuram Temple to commemorate the birth anniversary of Chola emperor Rajendra Chola I and release a special coin in his honour.
