Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin to inaugurate Kalaignar Centenary Jallikattu Arena in Madurai district on January 24.
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin will inaugurate the newly-constructed Kalaignar Centenary Jallikattu Arena in Keelakarai near Alanganallur in Madurai district on January 24.
In a message on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Mr. Stalin said he will inaugurate the arena and also witness the sport there.
He said the arena had been built in a grand manner by the current “Dravidian model” government for Jallikattu, which, he said, was a cultural identity of Tamil Nadu.
The Tamil Nadu government had announced the construction of the arena in 2022. The arena, on the foothills of Vaithumalai, has a viewers’ gallery with 3,700 seats on two floors. It also has other facilities like a bull shed, a bull barn and a veterinary hospital. The premises will also house a museum.
