Vision 2023 Tamil Nadu (“Vision 2023”) sets the plan for infrastructure development
for the State to reach the desired outcomes by 2023. The three outcomes of Vision 2023
are:
The per capita income of Tamil Nadu’s residents will reach USD 10,000 per annum
(at 2010 prices) – the present median income of Upper Middle Income countries - by
2023
Tamil Nadu will attain a high standard of social development, with the Human
Development Index of the State matching those of developed countries by 2023, and
Tamil Nadu would provide to its residents, high quality infrastructure all over the
State comparable with the best in the world
Key facets of Vision 2023 include Tamil Nadu’s enhanced economic dynamism, best in
class human development indicators, well developed infrastructure that provides
universal access to basic services, an investment climate that compares with the best in
Asia, and the evolution into India’s foremost knowledge and innovation hub.
With 217 developmental projects identified, the State will not only emerge as a “numero uno”
state of India, these initiatives will also pave the way for sustainable and inclusive growth,
lasting peace, prosperity and above all, improvement in quality of life for all its citizens. A total
investment of INR 15,00,000 Crore is envisaged for infrastructure development, as a part of
Vision 2023.
75 of the 217 infrastructure projects are at various stages of implementation, and
work on balance projects will commence shortly.
