The Hindu
Two air-concourses will be constructed along the lines of facilities at airports; concourse will have commercial establishments; multi-level car parking facility is also in the works
The Madurai Railway Junction will get a major revamp with an air concourse and the expansion of all passenger amenities to take care of passengers for the next 40 years.
This was explained to Southern Railway General Manager, John Thomas, in a brief power-point presentation at the Madurai Railway junction during his annual inspection on Monday.

The Union Home Ministry has announced a major policy shift for ex-Agniveers, raising their reservation in Group C posts of the Central Armed Police Forces from 10% to 50%, starting with the Border Security Force. Ex-Agniveers are exempt from physical tests but must clear written exams, with a minimum qualification of Class 10 pass. The move aims to provide stable government jobs for Agniveers retiring in 2026, sparking debate on its impact on other candidates.
