Jayakumar, Law Minister C.Ve. Shanmugam, Higher Education Minister K.P. Anbalagan, Chief Secretary K. Shanmugam and senior officials were present.

Meanwhile, the Chief Minister flagged off 108 new ambulances from the Secretariat. Mr. Palaniswami also unveiled new buildings constructed for a school run by the Delhi Tamil Education Association in Mayur Vihar in Delhi, via video conferencing.
