Tamil Nadu Assembly Speaker Highlights Chennai's Religious Harmony and DiversityPreviousNext

Tamil Nadu Assembly Speaker J.C.D. Prabhakar described Chennai as a symbol of religious harmony and unity in diversity. Reflecting on his move to the city in 1958, he noted the coexistence of various languages and dialects, alongside ancient temples, mosques, and churches. He highlighted landmarks like the Tiruvottiyur temple, Parthasarathy Temple, Kapaleeswarar Temple, and the Thousand Lights Mosque. Despite many changes, Marina Beach remains largely unchanged and is his favorite place in the city.
