Dear friends, Namaskar 🙏🙏😊😊Mega offlink From MP! Offlink Itarsi WAP7 hauling legendary TVC MAS mail standing at platform 4 at Avadi, Chennai Division, Southern Railway. Avadi is famous for military area (HVF, OCF, IAF, Ordinance clothing factory) established during Kamarajar rule some 50 years ago. It also possess an EMU car shed too. Avadi is the recent and new municipal corporation of Tamilnadu established in 2020-2021.
