“At this juncture what I want to tell you is–caste divisions and religious differences were created later to destroy Tamils’ unity. Let us conduct such cultural festivals unitedly with the Tamil identity,” he said.Jallikattu is also known as “aeruthazhuvuthal,” meaning embracing the bull.The “Kalaignar Nootranduu aeruthazhuvuthal Arangam”, named after Karunanidhi to commemorate his centenary, is spread across 60.8 acres at Keelakarai village in Madurai’s Alanganallur, famous for its jallikattu events.The CM had earlier made the announcement in the state Assembly that a separate grand arena will be constructed for jallikattu here.Among others, the complex has ‘vaadivasal’ (from where the bulls are released), waiting area for bulls, veterinary hospital and first aid centre and the arena can hold about 5000 spectators.Stalin also witnessed the first jallikattu event here.
