Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated and launched development projects worth more than ₹13,000 crore in Chennai on Sunday, spanning metro rail, highways, railways, ports and scientific research.
A central project was the roughly ₹4,900-crore Poonamallee–Vadapalani section of Chennai Metro Rail’s Phase II. The corridor includes a 3.7-km double-decker structure and signalling designed for driverless operations. Modi also travelled on the new stretch.
Highway works valued at about ₹3,700 crore included sections of NH-744 and NH-744A, along with the foundation stone for a bypass on NH-83 at Thiruvarur. Railway projects worth more than ₹750 crore included the Karaikal–Peralam line, three rail flyovers in and around Coimbatore, and five stations redeveloped under the Amrit Bharat Station Scheme.
The upgraded stations — Ambasamudram, Palani, Namakkal, Paramakkudi and Vellore Cantonment — received improvements to buildings, waiting areas, platforms, parking and passenger-information systems. Accessibility additions include ramps, lifts and accessible toilets. Their inauguration brought the number of completed stations under the scheme in Tamil Nadu to 26, according to The Indian Express.
Modi also launched port projects at Chennai Port, V.O. Chidambaranar Port and Kamarajar Port, and visited the Sudha Gopalakrishnan Brain Centre at IIT Madras.
At the inauguration, Modi and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay committed themselves to maintaining healthy Centre-State relations and working together for the development of Tamil Nadu. Vijay said collaboration between the two levels of government would benefit residents, while Modi said the Centre stood ready to provide whatever support was needed for Tamil Nadu’s development.

WHAT THE EDITOR DID
The second model checked the writer's draft against the same sources and changed it before publication. Struck words were in the draft; underlined words are its corrections.
WHAT IT FLAGGED editor revise: Two statements about Modi and Vijay's remarks overstated the source and should be toned to match it. - "At the inauguration, Modi and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay pledged cooperation between the Union and State governments.": The sources say they committed themselves to working together/maintaining healthy relations, not that they made a pledge. - "Vijay said collaboration between the two levels of government would benefit residents, while Modi promised continued central support for Tamil Nadu’s development.": The source says Modi said the Centre stood ready to provide whatever support was needed; 'promised continued central support' overstates the sourced wording.
