The building of model roadways, lakefront promenades, the 11-meter-tall media tree at Race Course, and the Thiruvalluvar statue at Kurichi Lake employing Tamil alphabets have all received praise from the ministry.

In India, it is a unique statue that incorporates more than 3,000 alphabets. The ministry tweeted its appreciation for the statue, describing it as "an exceptional tribute to the city's rich heritage and intellectual legacy."
