Chief Minister M.K. Stalin announced the creation of a statutory, autonomous State Commission for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes to safeguard constitutional rights and accelerate socioeconomic welfare. Outlining historic social justice interventions in the legislative assembly, Stalin also instituted cash awards of ten lakh rupees for rural panchayats that maintain unified, discrimination-free cremation grounds accessible to all communities without caste divisions. The policy represents a bold structural drive to dismantle entrenched rural segregation.

The autonomous commission will possess comprehensive powers to investigate atrocities, monitor welfare fund expenditures, recommend policy reforms, and ensure statutory representation across public institutions.
