Five rollbacks in four months: Is bureaucracy steering Tamil Nadu's TVK government?

Chief Minister Vijay's Tamil Nadu administration has withdrawn five government orders within four months of taking office, raising concerns about the nature of decision-making at the top.

Allies, including the Congress party, are questioning whether these reversals reflect political leadership choices or indicate that bureaucratic officials are driving policy decisions. The repeated rollbacks have sparked debate over governance priorities and the balance of power between elected leaders and the civil service.
