Airport needed
Airport needed
Tirunelveli is transforming itself into a Smart City with new roads, modern bus terminals, big showrooms, etc. What it needs is an airport of its own. The number of people travelling to Chennai and other cities is increasing and getting reservations in trains and buses has become difficult. Those who want to travel by air from Tirunelveli need to travel all the way to Vagaikulam in Thoothukudi district, wasting time and money. Hence I request that an airport be built along Tirunelveli-Nagercoil highway or Tirunelveli-Tenkasi highway. A dedicated airport for Tirunelveli will also give a fillip to trade, tourism and education sectors.

Buses skip Eruvadi
Government and omni buses from Nagercoil to Thanjavur, Tiruchi, Coimbatore, Dindigul, Rameswaram etc., skip Eruvadi. So passengers from Eruvadi have to go to Valliyur to catch buses, wasting time and money. The transport authorities must make stoppage at Eruvadi mandatory for all buses.

Senior BJP leader and former Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan on Saturday (November 23, 2024) said the landslide victory of the Mahayuti alliance in the Maharashtra Assembly election was historic, and that it reflected people’s mindset across the country. She added that the DMK would be unseated from power in the 2026 Assembly election in Tamil Nadu and that the BJP would be the reason for it.
