Coimbatore: Ministers S. Muthusamy and K.N. Nehru conducted an inspection on August 5 at the proposed site for the installation of a statue of former Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi in Karumathampatti area of Coimbatore.



During their visit, the ministers urged officials to expedite the completion of the project and make it available for public use as soon as possible. They carefully examined the location, assessing its proximity to the road and the surrounding area to determine the most suitable spot for the statue's placement.

The inspection team, which included DMK functionaries, party workers, and government officials, thoroughly evaluated the site's potential. The ministers' presence underscored the importance of this project, which aims to honor the legacy of the late DMK patriarch.
