Detroit of Asia

The source does not say that Chennai is popularly known as the detroit of asia.

It does say "CHENNAI, India—This Indian port city, built around a former British fort, in many ways resembles Detroit circa 1910."

"Chennai in southern India is rapidly becoming the new Detroit of south Asia as billions of dollars in foreign investment and hundreds of car and car part companies are changing the way this once sleepy port town works and plays."

Merger proposal

CLOSED

no agreement to merging of article(s) as stated. This could probably survive BOLD action by an interested editor. GenQuest ^"scribble" 03:14, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Formal request has been received from 103.251.217.115 to merge Automotive Corridor into Automotive industry in Chennai. Please discuss the proposal below.

Rationale given by proposer: I think it is more suitable to merge this two articles which have similar data and automotive corridor does not have any reliable sources. Felix QW (talk) 18:33, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merge In Automotive Corridor, data is similar and Automotive Corridor term is way generic in automotive industry so page title can be Automotive Corridor (Chennai) or merge. 103.241.226.231 (talk) 16:19, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
