Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin is set to inaugurate the newly constructed glass fiber bridge that will connect the Vivekananda Rock Memorial to the Thiruvalluvar Statue in Kanyakumari. This 77-meter-long, 10-meter-wide architectural marvel, costing Rs 37 crore, is designed to ensure that visitors can reach the Thiruvalluvar statue even during rough seas and low water levels. The inauguration will be part of a grand celebration that will also highlight Tamil Nadu's rich cultural heritage. With the bridge, tourism in the region is expected to see a major boost, making the statue more accessible than ever.

The Indian Coast Guard has launched an investigation into the crash, and further details are awaited. This tragedy comes on the heels of a recent safety upgrade to the ALH fleet, implemented by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), aimed at addressing a series of previous accidents. Despite the upgrade, the crash raises questions about the ongoing airworthiness of the Dhruv helicopters, which had faced grounding due to safety concerns last year.
