TIRUCHI After a delay of several months, civil work on the Kamarajar Grand Library and Intellectual Centre at Mannarpuram in Tiruchi has resumed. The library is expected to be ready for launch by March 2027. The ₹290-crore project, being executed by the Public Works Department (PWD), commenced in April 2025 and was officially scheduled for completion by September 2026.
The deadline has since been tentatively extended to March 2027. “Most of the building work has been completed; we are now in the process of installing false ceiling in the interiors, and the external development is in progress. We plan to complete the work by March 2027,” a senior Public Works Department official told The Hindu on Tuesday.
The official added that roofing had been completed on the seven-storey structure. Plastering, tile laying, and wall panelling is being attended to at present.
