According to Stalin, on March 22, 2025, Chennai hosted the inaugural JAC meeting on 'Fair Delimitation', a historic gathering that brought together Chief Ministers, Deputy Chief Minister, and prominent leaders representing diverse political ideologies from across India.

"The voices emerging from our deliberations transcend political boundaries, embodying the concerns of citizens from diverse regions, who seek fair representation in our parliamentary democracy," Stalin said.

"As this issue holds significant importance to our states and citizens, I kindly request a meeting with you to formally submit the Memorandum on behalf of the Joint Action Committee," the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister said.
