Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Tuesday requested the Central government to set up multi-modal logistics parks in the state's Tuticorin and Coimbatore.

He also requested the extension of the Bengaluru-Chennai Expressway till Chennai International Airport from Irrungattukottai near here.

In his remarks at the MoU signing function for the setting up of multi-modal logistics park in Tiruvallur district near here, Stalin said that the state government will render all necessary support for setting up of multi-modal logistics park in Tuticorin and Coimbatore.
