One nation, one election will create confusion among voters: HD Deve Gowda

India Today  

Former prime minister and JD supremo HD Deve Gowda on Thursday said "One nation, one election" -- holding simultaneous polls to the Lok Sabha and state assemblies -- would create confusion among the voters. It was announced after the meeting that a committee for giving "time-bound" suggestions on "One Nation, One Election" would be set up by the prime minister. Deve Gowda said when elections were held using paper ballots, officials gave separate paper slips to the voters if polls to the Lok Sabha and state assemblies took place simultaneously. However, now that elections take place using electronic voting machines, there will be a problem if simultaneous polls are held, Deve Gowda, whose party is in the ruling alliance with the Congress in Karnataka, said.
