Modi govt may table 'One Nation, One Election' bill in Parliament this winter session – Firstpost

Firstpost  

According to reports, the Union Cabinet has already approved the recommendations of the Ram Nath Kovind-led committee for ‘One Nation, One Election’ and now it is expected to tabled in the ongoing winter session of the parliament Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led Central government is reportedly working on three draft legislations based on the recommendations of the Ram Nath Kovind-led committee on ‘One Nation, One Election,’ and would shortly commence the exercise to implement it by attempting to build consensus across party lines. Continuing with its ‘One Nation, One Election’ initiative, the central government in September accepted the recommendations of the high-level committee to conduct simultaneous elections for the Lok Sabha, state assemblies, as well as local bodies in a phased approach. It is worth mentioning that the implementation of ‘One Nation, One Election’ framework will need extensive Constitutional amendments, including the passage of at least six bills with a two-thirds majority in both – Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. The Opposition has been persistently criticising the ‘One Nation, One Election’ proposal, calling it as “impractical, undemocratic, and unconstitutional.” They argue that the logistical and operational challenges of simultaneous elections could disrupt governance and weaken federal principles.
