Madurai is one rare city in a country where tourism, IT and industry could have a meaningful way to create a unique model of a balanced urban revolution.
The Indian Indian Confederation (Madurai) recently released its document Madur.Ai (Ancient Intelligence) Madurai Vision – 2035.
Old Madurai could be a cultural heart focusing on heritage, while the new Madur.Ai (Madurai was written as Madur.Ai (ancient intelligence), which means the need for modernity in every sense.
The chairman of the chapter CII Madurai Ashwin Desai said on Sunday that the document was ready to develop Madurai in cooperation with civil society and the government. “We just don’t want to stop with dialogs, but let’s take it and implement them,” he added.
In today’s rapid change, which is taking place around, the parties involved must keep a step with predictivity. By providing infrastructure, Madurai would have become more and more industrial industries as the most advantageous destination for business.
In addition to traditional enterprises, Madurai has been familiar in the past, newer and next generational business models would bring Neo-residents and innovative ideas. Cii, said, the initiatives on the development of Madurai-toothukuku as an industrial corridor. Since 2009, the section among entrepreneurs became acquainted that it would take off very soon.
The document proposed to set up various sectors around Madurai. For example, for rubber and allied industries, Madurai-Dindigul and attractive corridor could be designed in the document, as the Madurai-Tiruchi Madurai-Tiruchi corridor was designed in the document.
Madurai-thini corridor could be ideal for setting textile units. Agrofood cluster may occur along the Madurai-Kanniyakumari corridor and finally a large industry, including the electric and electronic industry, can take over the Madurai-Toothuku corridor.
Each cluster can be designed on a land plot of 2,500 hectares and ideally could have a balanced combination of residential, industrial and commercial premises established in cooperation with the model of the public and private sector partnerships or integrated access with the government participation.
Such a formation of a cluster around Madurai allows you to grow and develop between the districts would be visible, so avoid any criticism of neglect of any district, said Mr. Ashwin and added that with a neo-tidel park coming in Mattuthavani, which is expected to provide 10,000 people. a place.
The revitalization of Old Madurai, the document CII discusses the renovation of watercourses and streets. By rejuvenating the 7 km long Vaigai River, it helps to mix ecology and spirituality. You can see the world famous temple of Meenakshi SundareSwarar from the Vaigai River and eventually encourages the witness Aarathi and other spiritual activities.
According to the documentary, South Tamil is a historically cultural and spiritual heart. However, in terms of a large scale of economic transformation, it was slower than other regions in the state.
Madurai, considered the gateway to South Tamil Nadu, has the potential to reverse this story, act as a pivot and become a catalyst for industrial decentralization, rural balance and investment growth.
In order to ensure the efficiency, availability and proper development of these clusters, access to the road will be provided to these clusters for each kilometer to facilitate logistics and internal circulation. The first 500 meters from the main road will be earmarked for commercial and retail activities. It acts as a transient buffer between high -operation zones and basic industrial areas.
The basic industrial zones will be set behind the buffer zone to reduce overload and ensure the quality of life. The city districts will also be developed to create an ecosystem of “live work”. They will also focus on optimal soil use and minimize environmental impact by incorporating rainwater harvest systems, centralized waste and energy monitoring and designated ecological zones.
Madur’s pudu.Ai emphasizes sustainable urban design with a focus on green mandates. Some measures include Miyawaki forests, promoting vehicles of battery operated and state -of -the -art rainwater.
A strategy of energy, water and waste management will be developed, which includes mandates for the re -use of roof solar and water in new zones.
Along with the development of the city, the plan also focuses on the Demongestion Old Madurai with relocation of wholesale markets. This would release space for civil and cultural use in Old Madurai. The main tourist attractions in Old Madurai can be developed using a model of public and private sector partnerships.
The proposal also emphasizes that it is necessary to create a central city park and open space in the city. With the relocation of the central prison Madurai, a place of over 30 acres can be converted into a pulsating green corridor. It could be used for purposes such as events and to promote local art and culture.
Other aspects that are expected in the plan include the location of southern Tamil Nadu as a curriculum by supporting research parks to support cooperation in the sector and academy, innovation specific to sectors in areas such as IT, agriculture and rubber, as well as the establishment of the Center for Agriculture Research and Development.
With the development of Aiims in Toppur in Madurai, the district develops as medical tourism. On this basis, AIIMS, such as the center across disciplines and the recovery of bio-chest research, will build Madurai as regional leaders in advanced health care and innovation.
CR Venkatesh, founder and CEO of Dot Comfoway, CII, says that the industrial future Madurai could be formed by building two strong allied clusters – sustainable textiles and fashion technologies and rubber mobility. Madurai’s heritage in Sungadi, handloom and cotton textile can develop eco -friendly design with conventional coloring plants, certification laboratories and shared design studios, creating jobs (especially women) and reducing costs and pollution.
On the other hand, rubber and auto-acid bases can grow in a precise production center with shared prototype units, material banks and testing laboratories, supplying the Indian automatic corridor and even parts of EV. Together, these clusters would make Madurai both green textile capital and mobility components, managing exports, growing cleaner and employment of higher value, he adds.
