Tamil Nadu is planning a new integrated complex for the Legislative Assembly and the State Secretariat in Chennai. Multiple outlets report the project will cost about ₹1,200 crore and cover roughly 20 lakh (about 2 million) square feet, with modern infrastructure and amenities.
The planned complex is described as consolidating government functions by bringing State departments into a single location. Sources also say it will include enhanced fire safety and firefighting systems, improved accessibility for people with disabilities, and security arrangements. One report additionally mentions green building standards. The outlets frame the initiative as upgrading administrative capacity and improving public access to government services.
While the core details align—location in Chennai, an integrated Assembly-Secretariat facility, size, and cost—coverage differs slightly in emphasis. One outlet foregrounds the CM’s announcement, while others highlight design and compliance features such as accessibility, safety systems, and environmental standards.
