The Tamil Nadu government has passed an order to rename three metro stations in Chennai after three late Chief Ministers of the state.
According to a government order, the Alandur station will be called 'Arignar Anna Alandur Metro', the Central Metro as 'Puratchi Thalaivar Dr M G Ramachandran Central Metro' and the CMBT station as 'Puratchi Thalaivi Dr J Jayalalithaa CMBT Metro.'
Chennai Metro is the third largest metro system in India after Delhi Metro and Hyderabad Metro.
