The Committee had been established during the previous M.K.
Stalin-led DMK government. In a post on X, Udhayanidhi, who leads the DMK youth wing, reported that the Committee was struggling due to a shortage of staff. He claimed that the "dummy government" had created a scenario where the researchers and researchers involved in the Committee's second report on State autonomy were unable to continue their work.
