It is Chief Minister Karunanidhi’s dream project and to make sure the historic event draws enough audiences, schools and colleges in Tamil Nadu have been closed today. There is a special casual leave for government employees and the entire state machinery is camping in the textile city.As the first world Tamil conference, after the language was granted a classical status, commences in Coimbatore on Wednesday, the venue has turned into a spectacle.A whopping three hundred and eighty crore rupees have been pumped in and the event brings together around four thousand Tamil scholars and over a lakh visitors from the Tamil diaspora around the world.While Coimbatore will be in the grip of the world Tamil conference fever over the next few days, political commentators will watch every word of Karunanidhi whether he speaks about his retirement plans as announced last year.Hon’ble Chief Minister Dr. Kalaignar M Karunanidhi released the Logo and website for World Classical Tamil Conference 2010.
