According to a press release, the Minister said the new building would come up in 11 months at an estimated cost of ₹3.85 crore on 1,180 square metres - ground floor and first floor. The new premises would be built on the same campus of the existing office.
Speaking to reporters, Mr. Periysamy said that the State government had been augmenting civic infrastructure in line of the rise in population. Chief Minister M.K. Stalin has given instructions to ensure that government offices were situated in such a way that people need not travel long distances for obtaining certificates for welfare schemes and other benefits.
As redressal of public grievances is the top priority for the State government, civic infrastructure is strengthened wherever needed, the Minister said.
