CENTRE BIG MOVE ON ‘ONE NATION, ONE ELECTION': FORMER PRESIDENT RAM NATH KOVIND TO LEAD COMMITTEE
The Business Guardian
|September 02, 2023
The Union government has constituted a committee led by former President Ram Nath Kovind to explore the possibility of 'One Nation, One Election,' a concept that involves conducting general elections and state Assembly elections simultaneously.
-
Sources indicate that the committee will assess the possibility of enacting legislation in this regard. Previously, a parliamentary standing committee, the Law Commission, and Niti Ayog had all examined the 'One Nation, One Election' proposal and submitted reports on the matter.
The government has decided to convene a Special Session of Parliament from September 18-22, raising speculation that a bill for this proposal may be introduced during this period. With five states set to hold elections later this year and the General Elections scheduled for 2024, there is anticipation that 'One Nation, One Election' could become a reality in the near future.
