Could a second capital for Tamil Nadu lead to the bifurcation of the state in the future?

 Base:

Three Indian States/UTs which have more than one capital:

1.Maharashtra - Mumbai and Nagpur

2.Jammu & Kashmir- Sri Nagar and Jammu

3.HP- Shimla and Dharmsala


One need not worry about geographical boundaries of the state- it was not remained static in the past and it will not remain static in future.

Whom to blame, if Indians made a target of quadrapuling their population in a matter of 73 years. Naturally it will give birth to many districts as well as states.

Change is the only Change. Different times require different things.

Why Second Capital? There is no need.

Instead, change the one and only Capital from Chennai to Other City. 7Cr people are huge population- is it fair to shuttle all to a city which is in North East Corner of the State.

Look our own history.

1.Why British Established Palayam Kottai in the South, when Madras was already there? We have got a reasonable infrastructure with educational institutions at Tinnevelly.

2.What made Muttu Krishnappa Naicker to make Trichy as the capital of Madurai Naicker Kingdom? Today we have two cities to contend for the capital.

Naicker Capitals for 200 years:

Madurai (1529–1616)

Tiruchirappali (1616–1634)

Madurai (1634–1695)

Tiruchirappali (1695–1716)

Madurai (1716–1736)

3.Before, Chozhas had Uraiyur, Thanjavur and Chidambaram…

4.Pallavas established Kanchi -additions Nalanda like University, Silk Weaving.

Changing State Capital from Chennai is a good Idea to be explored.
