Minister takes part in the bhumi puja at Mattuthavani held
Minister for Commercial Taxes and Registration P. Moorthy, along with Collector S. Aneesh Sekar and Madurai Corporation Commissioner K. P. Karthikeyan, took part in a bhumi puja function for setting up a gasifier crematorium at press colony in Mattuthavani here on Friday. He said that the Tamil Nadu Chamber of Commerce and Industry (TNCCI) sponsored ₹1 crore for setting up the crematorium in Mattuthavani. TNCCI president N. Jegatheesan was also present.
The Union and State governments provided support in several ways to the needy people, but private institutions should also extend help, especially to those requiring medical assistance, said C.P. Rajkumar, Managing Director, Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, here on Saturday. Speaking at a function to honour Inspector General of Police V. Balakrishnan and neurologist S. Meenakshisundaram with C. Palaniappan Memorial Award for their contribution to society and Nalam Kappom medical adoption of Type-1 diabetic children, he said the governments implemented numerous welfare programmes, but the timely help by a private hospital or a doctor in the neighbourhood to the people in need would go a long way in safeguarding their lives.
