Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin laid the foundation stone for the Madurai TIDEL Park through a video conference on Tuesday at an event held in Madurai.
The demand for establishing a TIDEL Park in Madurai was put forth by the IT sector. Considering the current needs, it was announced in the State Assembly that the TIDEL Park would be set up in the Mattuthavani area of Madurai. Following this, 9.97 acres of land owned by the Madurai Corporation, located between the Mattuthavani bus terminus and the paddy trade complex, was allocated for the TIDEL Park.

Environmental clearance has been granted, and a contract has been awarded to a private company for the construction work. The TIDEL Park will be built at an estimated cost of Rs 314.29 crore. It is expected to create employment opportunities for around 6,000 people, both directly and indirectly. The building will be constructed as a single block extending up to 72 meters in length, with the ground floor occupying 4,008.71 square feet. The required drinking water supply will be provided by the Madurai Corporation. The construction inauguration ceremony was held today, where CM MK.
