Why don't Central Government break Tamil Nadu into 3 parts as Chennai Union Territory, Kongu Nadu and remaining part as Tamil Nadu?

 Already there is a strong demand for STN ( Sen Tamil Nadu) with the Central Government.

The Pandiya Nadu region feels that it has been continuously ignored by Subsequent Governments at the State and the centre for infra development since independence for the development with a slogan “Vadakku Vazhgiradhu; Therkku Thalkiradhu”.

This region,

1.Was once a leader in trading spices with Dutch and Portuguese, since 15th century,

2.Saw priority railway investments as early as 1857 by the British.

3.With Harveys investing largely (10 times that of Kongu region) in an industrial corridor in Ambasamudram, Tuticorin and Madurai in 1897.

4.Ancilliary services developed in Palayamkottai and ancilliary industries in Virudhunagar, Sivakasi, Kovilpatti and Sattur.

After independance, the region was completely ignored by state (DMK & ADMK) and central (INC) governments in infra. The industries in Sivakasi, Kovilpatti and Sattur were deserted with the policies of the Central Government. Once well known for textiles, Crackers, Matches, Printing Press, Pens- now these towns are ridiculed for eatables like Halwa, Kadalai Mittai, Sevu, Paalkova. With the lack of infra development, the entrpreneurs deserted the region and migrated to Chennai.

  • Conventional and Unconventional Energy Sources.
  • Temples of Sri Vaishnavism, Shaivam and Kaumaram on the banks of Tamirabharani and Vaigai. Many tourist places like Madurai, Rameshwaram, Kutralam, Papavinasam, Tiruchendur etc and places of freedom fighters like Bharatiar, VOC, Kattabomman, Vanchinathan and many more.

  • It is one of the 100% agmark Tamil region historically in comparison with other regions in TN. i.Chera Malayam, ii.Tamil Pandyam, iii.Chozha Samaskritham, iv.Telugu Pallavam and v. Kongu regions.

Then why it is beong ignored continuosly with grievance of “Vadakku Vazhgiradhu; Therkku Thalkiradhu”?

Geographic region of any state is not permanent looking into the history. With increase in population four fold since 1956, it is right time not to hinder the development of any region due to bigger State size. With the State capital at the extreme North spoils the growth of other regions with ambitions. Everything including industrial corridors ends with Chennai - Bangalore Roadway and leaving other regions starve.
