US EditionMK Stalin Seeks 50% Share in Tax Revenue, Release of Education Funds and More From Centre – Full List of Demands Here
- On May 24, 2025, the head of Tamil Nadu's government called on the NITI Aayog meeting in New Delhi to increase the proportion of divisible central tax revenue allocated to states to 50%.
- He made the demand because states currently receive only 33.16% of gross tax revenue, below the 15th Finance Commission's 41% recommendation, while expenditure burdens rise on states like Tamil Nadu.
- Stalin also requested the Centre release ₹2,200 crore withheld under the Samagra Shiksha Abhiyan, linking delays to unsigned MoUs related to the PM SHRI education scheme.
- He stressed that in a healthy federal system, states should not have to engage in legal disputes to receive their rightful funding, as such delays impede progress at both the state and national levels.
- These demands underscore Tamil Nadu's aim to become a $1 trillion economy by 2030 and contribute to India's $30 trillion target by 2047 amid ongoing resource-sharing disputes.
