In 2015, a team from Centre visited Madurai, Chengalpattu, Perundurai, Pudukottai and Thanjavur scouting for land. The estimated area of land for setting up AIIMS is 200 acres.

Giving a reply to the question raised by K. Ponmudi, the Chief Minister mentioned that the team pointed out few shortcomings at each of the proposed areas. After carrying out a detailed inspection, the team clarified that Chengipatti in Thanjavur is the favourable location for setting up AIIMS. Therefore, to complete the project as early as possible, the state government has recommended Chengipatti as the proposed area to set up AIIMS. The state government has communicated the same to the centre recently.
