[edit] Original Content

"TUTICRIN HAS FROM TIME IMMEMORIAL BEEN CALLED MUTHU NAGARAM (CITY OF PEARLS) BECAUSE OF THE NATURAL PEARL DIVING INDUSTRY... WHICH INCIDENTLY IS DEFUNCT NOW A DAYS. NOW TUTICORIN IS FAMOUS FOR IT'S SALT PANS WHICH CATER TO THE VAST MAJORITY OF INDIA'S SALT REQUIREMTNS. IT ALSO BOASTS OF INDIA'S FASTEST GROWING PORT WHICH SOON WILL BE DEVELOPED INTO A HUB PORT AFTER THE DREDGING OF THE SATHU SAMUDRAM PROJECT IS COMPLETED. TUTICORIN ALSO HAS MANY FINE INDUSTRIES LIKE STEARLITE (COPPER SMELTING), SPIC (FERTILISERS), TAC (FERTILISERS.. AND A HUGE NUMBER OF UNITS PRODUCING DRIED FLOWERS."

Above is the original content. I'm hoping that it actually applies to Tuthukudi, even though the name seems to change an awful lot.
