Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay, on Wednesday (August 19, 2026), extended greetings to all photographers on the occasion of World Photography Day.

In a post on X, the Chief Minister said photographers turn every moment of life into a life-long memory. Artistic photographs cannot be expressed in words. A photograph freezes the passing time in an instant, and carries the history forward to the next generation, he said.
