Yesterday, I received the Part-I of the Report of the High-Level Committee on Union-State Relations constituted by our Government.
It is in this backdrop that I share my op-ed in today’s @the_hindu on why India’s federalism needs a structural reset.
Meaningful federalism is not about control, but about trust, autonomy, and governance that responds to people’s realities. Please read and share.

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin said he had received Part-I of the report from the High-Level Committee on Union-State Relations, a committee set up by the Tamil Nadu government to examine the relationship between the Union and state governments. To coincide with the report, Stalin published an op-ed in The Hindu newspaper making the case that India's federalism requires a 'structural reset'. In the op-ed, he argued that meaningful federalism is not about central control but about trust, autonomy for states, and governance that responds to the realities faced by people on the ground. Stalin urged readers to read and share the article. The tweet does not detail the specific recommendations contained in the committee's report, focusing instead on announcing its receipt and promoting the accompanying opinion piece on the broader federalism debate between Tamil Nadu and the Union government.
