The recent GST Council meeting turned into a tense affair as several states strongly resisted key proposals, raising concerns over revenue sharing and compensation. The heated discussions highlighted the growing friction between the Centre and states, with some demanding greater financial autonomy and safeguards for their fiscal stability.

As the deadlock continued, a vote was nearly called—an unusual move in the council known for consensus-based decisions. However, after intense negotiations, a breakthrough was achieved, ensuring a compromise that balanced state interests with national priorities. The outcome not only averted a potential standoff but also reinforced the importance of dialogue and cooperation in India’s federal fiscal framework.
