Tamil Nadu Moves Resolution for Fair Tax Devolution with Centre
The government of Tamil Nadu, a state in India, wants more money from the country's central government.
When people pay taxes in India, much of that money goes to the central government.
The central government shares some of that money with the states.
Tamil Nadu believes it is not getting its fair share.
So Tamil Nadu is going to pass an official statement called a resolution.
The resolution will ask the central government for a fair share of the tax money.
Tamil Nadu will raise this issue directly with the central government.
This could make the argument between the central government and the states stronger.
The story was reported by the news channel CNN-News18.
The Tamil Nadu government is set to move a resolution demanding a fair share of central tax revenue.
The resolution raises the tax devolution issue directly with the Centre.
The move is expected to intensify the ongoing Centre-State fiscal debate.
