Minister attributes delay in construction to pandemic
Revenue Minister R. B. Udhayakumar on Thursday said none can stop the establishment of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences at Thoppur in Madurai.
After inaugurating the Amma mini clinic at Thirumangalam, he told journalists that some people under the guise of activists were misleading the public on the project. “It would be wrong to say that the AIIMS will not come near Madurai.or it would not be correct to state that the Tamil Nadu government had done nothing towards this project,” he said.
The Minister recalled that the foundation stone for the AIIMS was laid by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 2019. The land parcel, which was earlier assigned to the Tuberculosis Hospital, had now been handed over to the Revenue Department as per the guidelines.

People will teach the AIADMK government an apt lesson, says Balakrishnan
CPI(M) State secretary K. Balakrishnan condemned the police action against those who protested across the State on Monday before the District Collectorate backing the farmers in Delhi.
In a statement, he alleged that police had attacked farmers and women who participated in the protest and arrested them.
In Dindigul, former MLA K. Balabharathi and others were attacked and kept in a marriage hall, Mr. Balakrishnan alleged. He also warned that people will teach an apt lesson to the Edappadi Palaniswami-led government “which is treating farmers like anti-social elements through police action”.
