Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. K. Stalin will inaugurate the 45th annual Book Fair in Chennai Metro City at the Chennai Nandanam YMCA Grounds on 16th February (Tomorrow, Tuesday).

The Annual Book Fair traditionally conducted in January coinciding with Pongal Holidays was planned to have 1000 Stalls. However, it had to be postponed due to the prevailing raging coronavirus waves.

The Secretary of BAPASI (Booksellers And Publishers’ Association of South India) has informed now that the Fair would have 800 Stalls displaying books over 1 lakh titles published by 500 publications.

Just as it was organised last year, this year’s Book Fair will also strictly adhere to the corona prevention guidelines and would be open from 11.00 AM to 8.00 PM.

BAPASI Secretary informed further than 10 Lakhs Book Fair Tickets would be distributed to the Schools and Colleges in Chennai Metro City. There would be a special stall/hall set up for younger children for learning reading and writing!
