The Tamil Nadu Assembly witnessed key legislative moves with a resolution urging the Union Government and the President to recognise Tamil as a principal language in Madras High Court proceedings. The resolution calls for procedures allowing petitions, documents, and arguments in Tamil, along with providing court judgements and decrees in the language. Citing constitutional provisions under Article 348(2) and Section 7 of the Official Languages Act 1963, the Assembly pushed for necessary measures to enable justice delivery in the regional language. In addition, an announcement was made regarding a mega project to construct a new Secretariat building complex in Chennai at an estimated cost of Rs 1,800 crore. Spanning an extensive area, the planned facility aims to resolve space and parking constraints at Fort St. George, while incorporating modern infrastructure and fire safety systems to meet administrative needs for the next hundred years.
