THE Qatar Tamizhar Sangham (QTS) on Tuesday hosted a reception in honour of visiting Tamil Nadu Minister of Sports and Environment Affairs, Moideen Khan. The minister was in Qatar to attend the 15th Asian Games.

The QTS officials sought the intervention of the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Muthuvel Karunanadhi for the introduction of a direct flight from Chennai to Doha. They also submitted a memorandum on the issue to the minister.

The issue of upgrading the airport at Tuticorin also figured prominently at the meeting. This would immensely benefit non-resident Indians hailing from Ramnad, Tirunelveli and Tuticorin districts, QTS president A B K D Charles said at the meeting.
